Sons of Liberty Gun Works Loyal 9 A5 Receiver Extension Buffer Tube - 9 Position, Fits AR Rifles, Black - SKU: L9A5RE - UPC: 785939517729
Product Description
The Sons of Liberty Gun Works (SOLGW) Loyal 9 A5 Receiver Extension Buffer Tube (L9A5RE) is an upgraded, 9-position intermediate length buffer tube designed around the proven Vltor A5 buffer system architecture. Engineered for hard-use AR-15 and AR-10/SR-25 rifles, the Loyal 9 A5 extension provides finer length-of-pull adjustability and enhanced cycling reliability over standard 6-position carbine buffer tubes.
Precision CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and finished in a Mil-Spec Type III hardcoat anodized black coating, the L9A5RE features dry-film lubricant coated interior walls to reduce buffer friction, spring noise, and surface drag. The 9-position adjustment channels allow shooters to fine-tune their stock position precisely for body armor, thick winter clothing, or magnified optic eye relief.
The extended internal length of the A5 architecture allows the use of longer A5-length buffers and rifle-length buffer springs in a collapsible stock configuration. This extended stroke reduces felt recoil, flattens muzzle flip, and increases bolt carrier dwell time for ultra-reliable cycling under suppressed or rapid-fire schedules.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Direct fit for standard MIL-SPEC AR-15 and AR-10 / SR-25 lower receiver buffer threads (1-3/16"-16 UN). Requires an A5-length buffer and rifle-length buffer spring. Fits all standard MIL-SPEC diameter collapsible carbine stocks.
- Verify host lower receiver is completely clear, magazine removed, and chamber visually and physically confirmed empty.
- Thread the castle nut and endplate onto the SOLGW L9A5RE buffer tube with the smooth side facing forward.
- Apply a thin layer of aerosol-grade moly grease (MIL-PRF-2105) to receiver threads, then thread the buffer tube into the lower receiver until it captures the buffer retainer pin and spring.
- Align the receiver extension straight, push the endplate forward into the indexing notch, and hand-tighten the castle nut.
- Torque castle nut to 38-40 ft-lbs using a dedicated armorer wrench, then stake the endplate firmly into the castle nut staking notches.
Key Features
