Installing prs stock on dpms pattern 308ar

[texas30cal]

What is required to get the job done as far as parts go? I am using a A2 stock right now. My LGS has a o.d. green ar-10/sr-25 magpul PRS new in box marked $237 on sale for 50% off, but I am unfamiliar with it and want to make sure it will work on my rifle.

The easiest part in the world to replace. It's just one bolt, under the butt pad, that secures the stock.

Pull one stock off, replace with the other. No special tools or experience needed.

So my existing buffer tube will work?

Yes sir

Thank's for the quick replies, will go get it in the am, how is that price? It seems good, am looking on the net now.

[Robocop1051]

Any price under $200 is good. I think dealer cost is $160ish

Cool! That's even better doesn't sound like I can go wrong for 118.50! Thank's Robo.

Just make sure you get the right stock for the right caliber. The charging handle will interfere if you have a .308 and buy a 5.56 stock. The check piece when its raised will not allow you to pull the charging handle if you mismatch.  And yes if you have an A-2 stock you're good.

DO NOT run your A2 buttstock screw with the PRS - you'll either punch the longer A2 screw out the back of the stock, or kill the bumper on the end of the buffer.  Run the shorter screw that comes with the PRS.

 

You'll need to remove the 5/8" A2 spacer from the end of the receiver extension, too.

I got it on already, I used he short screw that came with the stock and removed the spacer but have not been able to go to the range yet.
