M-Forgery Butt replacement

[DunRanull]

I have a Colt M-forgery with collapsible butt-stock. Can I (with a minimun of fuss) mount a solid butt-stock, preferably one like the original length M16 stock? I'm looking at one from Brownells but any shorter solid stock would do- I think. Thanks for any help or suggestions.

You want an A2 buttstock assembly.
Everything from the receiver back has to change out.
Shop around for a better price, but this is what the kit looks like :

I just did the same thing.
Picked up stock, tube and buffer assy.

Also keep in mind the A2 butt is longer than the A1 butt, but both use the same buffer tube, so if you ever want to change your butt, you don't need to buy new pants.

Is this A1 length?

A2.

A1 is 9.875", IIRC.

Weird. I got 2 different length stocks somehow.

The biggest danger you face is finding out how easy it all is and just going wild

You need something like this and a vice mounted to something solid. I mean yes, you can go nuts with better tools and torque wrenches and all that, but this set will do fine if you take your time and watch some how-to videos. I helped a friend build one and I took my cheep vice mounted to a 2x6 and a cordless drill along. He had a tree stump in his yard so we screwed the 2x6 to the stump, put everything together and went shooting
