Description
The VLTOR RE-A5 is the receiver extension tube designed specifically for the VLTOR A5 buffer system. It runs slightly longer than a standard M4 extension, which is what allows the A5 system to function. That extra length is the whole point. Drop this on a standard carbine-length upper and it will not work with a standard carbine buffer and spring without the corresponding A5 components.
Dimensioned to mil-spec, so it accepts M4/AR-15 collapsible stocks without modification. The seven positions are numbered and visible through the witness hole on most stocks, which removes any guesswork when returning to a preferred length of pull. VLTOR also notes this tube can serve as a replacement receiver extension on AR-10 platforms. Verify fitment with your specific lower before ordering.

Will this work with a standard carbine buffer and spring?
No. The RE-A5 is longer than a standard M4 tube and is built around the VLTOR A5 buffer system. Using it with standard carbine components will result in improper function.
Does this fit AR-10 lowers?
VLTOR states it can be used as a replacement receiver extension on AR-10 rifles. Confirm compatibility with your specific lower receiver before installing.
