After Due Consideration...

I have decided that the extra mass of the rifle buffer is a plus, the extra overall mass of the assembly is desirable and the extra area of the butt should be more pleasant.

So I have put the solid M16A1 "type E" stock on Tabitha in place of the Fiberlite™ (picture recycled).

She no longer resembles a GUU-5/P any more so much as an R652.

This makes her about ten ounces heavier overall.  The heavier buffer should make for better reliability as things get dirty.  I noticed that the recoil was a bit harsh at the range, getting more area on the butt and more mass will help that a lot.
