Magpul PRS Gen 2

I don't know why magpul changed the gen 2 design. Gen three is too long at its shortest length and the bottom mount is slanted because? Stupid design in my opinion. The gen 2 design was a bit heavier but made much more sense. Also came with an attached bottom rail for the monopod users and was flat. The shortest length of pull made much more sense, especially for guys with short ass arms like mine. My 2 cents.

The Gen 3 fits over carbine buffer tubes as well as A2 rifle tubes. That is is biggest advantage. I could put it on my Modern Hunter for the range and take it off for a CTR for hunting. It is also a bit lighter and it came with QD sockets.

How have you found the fitment with the carbine buffer ? any play etc ?

There are 2 designs for GEN 2 one is AR 15 the other is AR10 and its all about charge handle length of pull. Thats why the GEN 3 is longer so it can accommodate the AR15/10
Struggle to find AR 10 style

Heres the link with pictures if your curious
