Most people don't not switch stocks from gun to gun. So again - not worth getting rid of the com spec tube.

Tormoz, pull the stock off and see if the end is slanted or square. It's easy to take off. Pry that plunger up with a bullet point or screwdriver and yank the stock off. If the tube's slanted order commercial spec. If square order mil-spec. I don't know of a buttpad that will fit on that factory el-cheapo stock.
We'll talk about red dot sights later

It's like some of you think mil spec is so amazing that anything else can't be OK.
Aside from the tube OD difference, the only difference is one has cut threads and one has rolled threads - both perfectly fine for the application. As for strength it's not even worth talking about unless your rifle also doubles as a pry bar. In which case both would fail anyway.

2. If his AR10 stock somehow breaks, he can throw his stock from his AR15 on it.
3. If his AR15 extension broke, he could replace the tube assembly with the one from his AR10.
There's no reason for the commercial tubes to exist, let alone to invest in them.
Might as well go big and get one of these:https://www.aimsurplus.com/product.a...lapsible+Stock

Srs questions dudes,
If you could have any Glock they currently sell, what would you get? Keeping price out of it.
17L? 34 MOS? 40 MOS?
Also drinking some 11/10 Pliny the Elder, GOAT IPA.
