Of course, had the new buffer&spring in...

UPDATE: Got to reshoot the afore mentioned rounds today. ~20 of each, in 2 different mags. rifle fed all of them flawlessly. I guess more ammo down the pipe is needed to be sure. If problems re develop I will fix gas port Thanks to all for the help. RDL...

Morning all, After reading the above, should I just not waste the time/ammo testing the new buffer/spring and take to to the local gunsmith. One of my 'smiths specializes in building AR's for the local 3 gun shooters at my club. I'm just not that familiar with disassembly of the area of the platform..... thanks again, Red

Thanks 98Z5V/M.C. Just purchased heavier buffer and spring... Upper has an adjustable gas block. So, once buffer/spring installed, will test fire again and check performance. Then if needed adjust gas port...

just weighed, 3.8.

Not being an expert on AR15/10's is why I came to this forum...i'l go with your suggestion on the original part suggestion...if that route taken. I have received a RMA from PSA. They want to look at it. My sons bought this rifle as a retirement gift for me, I feel bad about the problems so far and they feel worse.... On another note, I'm assuming the heavier buffer will allow the bolt to strip a round out of mag more forcibly?

ok, will try tomorrow and post...thanks.

Ok, this good?

Thanks guys, appreciate the help. CAR-10 Buffer - 5.5 ounces - $100 CAR-10 Buffer + .308 Carbine Buffer Spring This is what your suggesting correct?

OK thanks M.C, got some 30W out, will lube BGC. Pics:
