Has anyone done this to their AR?

You'd need to swap out your carbine buffer tube, spring, and buffer for the fixed-stock rifle counterparts. Peen back the staking on the castle nut. Remove castle nut. Remove buffer tube. When removing the castle nut, make sure to release the buffer tube plate slowly. It retains the spring and detent for the rear pin. When removing the buffer tube, put your finger on the buffer retaining pin. It's spring loaded and can fly out.
Install the rifle parts.
IMO, you want to put on a PRS stock go for it. Post pics.
