I've actually got a few questions, and the issue behind them is a little complicated so bear with me please.

I purchased a mil-spec CTR last week and received it this morning.  Come to find out that the mil-spec receiver extension I thought I had likely isn't mil-spec at all.  At any rate the CTR won't fit the tube at all.  I realize I can swap the mil-spec CTR I have for a commercial version; at least that's what I gather, right?  However, I want to use the CTR without the rubber buttpad, and from what I understand the commercial version requires the buttpad because of the extra length/angular end on a commercial tube.  Am I correct in this assumption or is it possible to use the commercial CTR without the pad?

On another tangent, I might just decide round up an actual mil-spec tube and keep the   CTR I currently have; particularly if the commercial CTR is a no-go without the pad.  My mil-spec CTR came with a rubber buttpad installed.  As I mentioned, I want to use it without the pad so I removed it, But without it the pad there's that gaping hole left in the rear face of the stock.  I've seen photos of the CTR with a fitted plate in place of the hole, as seen in this one from your site.  My CTR didn't come with one of those, and I wonder if they're still available and if it's possible to order one?

Thanks, and sorry for my convoluted little ordeal.

We do have Butt-Caps available and they WILL work on Commercial-spec CTRs, however you won't be able to collapse the stock entirely due to the extended slant back on Commercial-spec Receiver Extensions.
Give us a call and we'll get you taken care of.
