AR Buffer Tube Extender???

[BSBusterBullseyeShooter]

I'm looking for a buffer tube extender for my two AR's (10 and 15), but haven't had any luck finding one. What I'm thinking of is a 2 - 4" extension tube with standard AR threading, male on one end and female on the other. I realize it would likely require a plug in the stock tube to allow proper operation of the buffer/spring.

The problem I'm trying to solve is firing hand position on the grip/trigger. Although I have an adjustable operator stock, even with the stock all the way back my right elbow is bent too much, compromising my ability to maintain a correct firing position with my hand.

If anyone knows where to find such a device, or knows of a better solution, I'd appreciate hearing about it. My stock isn't designed to accept a simple method of extending the should pad to accomplish this, and I really don't want to invest the $$$ in two new stocks.

or just learn to tuck your elbows like everyone else

I have one of THESE (http://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/receiver-parts/buffer-tube-parts/buffer-tube-hardware/ar-15-buttstock-extender-prod5559.aspx) 1" extensions for my A2 stock. I'm about 6'6" and combined with a 15" handguard I get a great handle on that rifle.

There's also pads for stocks like Magpul's lineup that can get you half an inch. For me a long stock is nice but what I've noticed is that the longer handguards seem to do more to help me.

On a side note I don't quite get why you need so much more stock. I'm having a hard time picturing what you're trying to overcome.

Training from Sniper's Hide: The rifle needs to fit your natural shooting position, and provide you with a grip the enables a straight-back trigger pull. With the buttstock pad placed in the inside crook of your elbow, your bent trigger finger should be about 1/4" - 1/2" beyond the front surface of the trigger. One of the basic marksmanship essentials taught by this highly-reputable company/training organization. My Remington 700 .308 mounted in a Cadence Lite Strike chassis fills the bill perfectly because of the overall design and the adjustability of the stock shoulder pad position. I'm looking for a similar solution for my AR's. "Tucking your elbows" like Plainsman suggested is not a solution, but an inadequate compensation for the rifle not fitting the shooter properly, and will NEVER produce the desired accuracy results.

Regardless, thanks to both of you for your suggestions - I'll check them out.

The system you suggested is not only incompatible with other adjustable stocks, it doesn't provide any more adjustability range than my RRA CAR Operator stocks (which provide as much or more adjustability as any other 'standard' AR stocks).

Your other 'suggestion' has no merit - see my reply below.
