Leapers UTG PRO Mil-spec 6 Position Receiver Extension Tube Kit - Flat Dark Earth

I was very happily surprised with the overall quality and value of this kit. The finish is excellent on all the parts. The buffer spring is vinyl coated, so it should be very quiet. I can only come up with some very minor criticisms. The castle nut is not as thick as most others I have used, but it will still do the job. The bumper on the buffer is a cheaper, harder material than others, but it still works. Very happy and would buy again if I need another kit for a build.

My only complaint on this kit is the spring and the buffer. It's loud. I ended up installing this on my nephews build. I threw a little ALG Go-Juice on it and it reduced the sound. Ended up getting the Spike's setup for mine.

The tube itself is fine, but the castle nut is plastic, and the spring is weak. I ended up ordering those two parts separately. Honestly, the nut was the real bummer, I could have dealt with the spring probably but I'm being anal about it. FDE colour is very close to Magpul FDE btw, but a slightly lighter perhaps. At the end of the day it's not noticeable though.

I'll agree with another review that the buffer itself feels kind of cheap. I bought this for the FDE tube though, and I'm very pleased with it. Just a heads up, the picture on the site leads you to believe this tubes coloring may be a little "off", it's not, it's dead on FDE.

This assembly is well-made and the finish looks nice and uniform on the parts. The end plate and castle nut are a dark glossy black, which looks really nice compared to some other offerings which are typically anodized or parkerized.

Very nice quality and the finish is great.

First off, the tube looks and fits great. The buffer looks and feels the same as any I used in the army, and while it is a bit loud, shooting is louder so that doesn’t bother me. The coated spring is a bit stiffer than any of worn out M4 springs I’ve used before, but I really like that since I’m using a higher caliber. Would absolutely buy again.

Used this in an 18" mid length gas .223 wylde build in fde.
<br>Near exact match to the fde on my aero precision receiver set. Functions great in this build.

I know Leapers is regarded as a “budget” brand, it im impressed with this kit. The FDE is spot on with Magpul and my Aero lower. The coating looks great. All quality parts. Even the castle nut is nicer than many others I’ve gotten in other buffer kits. Another review on here said he got a plastic castle nut. The castle nut I received is aluminum. I would absolutely buy this kit again.

Works perfectly. Only 200 rounds or so with it
