An H-buffer won't hurt to have in that carbine. The sling mount you will be happy with depends on what you plan on doing with the carbine (I have 2-point slings on all mine but I recognize the need/benefits of a single point and know plenty of folks who own them.
If you're looking for a single point on the back of the receiver, then I'd get a Magpul ASAP. They're a bit tricky to install, but worth it for weak-side transitions if you ever use your AR for comps, hard training, or just serious fun.
You'll need an AR-15 spanner wrench made for the castle nut to replace the extension tube. Everyone who owns an AR should have one of these (they can be had for cheap) so its a good idea to pick one up.

I'm planning on ordering an LMT Mil-Spec Tube.
I have the 16" M4 carbine type of bushmaster. Would you recommend an H buffer and sling mount?
Also, do I need to take this to a gunsmith in order to replace tube?
Thanks for the info.
