Installing Magpul stock?
- Thread starter USP
- Start date
Push in the buffer retainer (the little spring loaded pin inside the threaded part of the lower receiver that the stock screws into) and unscrew the buffer tube. Sometimes the buffer tube locking ring is peened in place. Also look out for the rear takedown pin detent & spring that will fly out the rear hole which the little washer between the buffer tube and receiver covers. It's not too hard just watch for the flying spring. The Magpul stock is a little more fidgety to install.

The M93 has an integral tube.
-Undo the lock nut on the receiver extension, use the proper tool, if not available, a strap wrench will do.
-When the lock nut is loose the receiver end plate will be able to rotate with the extension, it is holding in the takedown pin detent spring, so like gunslinger said, make sure you don't lose it.
-Unscrew the extension tube from the receiver, put your thumb on the buffer retainer as the receiver extension comes out, or else you will launch it.
-That's it.

the 93 has it's own buffer. Like Gunsligner said be carefull of the rear takedown pin detent & spring while unscrewing the buffer as you can kink your spring and have to replace it. To install the 93 simply reverse the steps that you used to remove the original stock. BTW the 93 buffer is propertary and will only work with the 93.
You only need locktite on the two small hex head Magpull screws that hold the little magpul "clamp" on the back. It's not really necessary though. Just watch the little springs and detent, guaranteed you'll launch them across the room and they're real tiny.
