dubya Posted March 30, 2018 Report Posted March 30, 2018 I just picked up a new PSA complete lower receiver yesterday and have decided to build with a rifle length fixed stock. I'd like to trade my mil-spec carbine kit for your rifle kit (A1/A2). That includes the buffer, spring, tube and the proper plate & lock ring/nut. I also have a new Magpul MOE carbine stock that came on the same lower I'd sell or trade with the buffer kit. I could also use a fixed rifle length MOE stock if anyone has one not being used. I ship USPS priority tracked and insured
98Z5V Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 You would definitely have to list all the measurements of the parts, or nobody will jump on this. PSA has a history of critically mis-matching the recoil system on their end.
sketch Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 was this purchased as an ar15 lower or pa10? mill spec or commercial tube?

It's a basic 3oz buffer and carbine tube/spring, nothing silly here. If someone absolutely needs exact measurements of my carbine buffer kit I'll gladly get the numbers for them if they ask. Also, just for clarity's sake, this is for a standard AR correct?

Its in the OP that it's a mil-spec tube. Bought as a Complete AR15 lower, I actually bought two, that are identical, and put a 5.56 16" Carbine upper on the other. It fires fine with factory loaded Federal AE223BL 55gr ammo that I had on hand yesterday, I can't imagine the buffer kit I'm trading/selling would be any different.

Matt.Cross Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 Cool! Sorry for the thread clutter, just looking for clarification. Thank you!
dubya Posted March 31, 2018 Author Report Posted March 31, 2018 This is exactly what it came off from PSA, ordered 3/4/18 and picked up yesterday morning from my local FFL.

No issues, I'd rather someone remind me of important details I may have missed. I haven't been on the various gun forums for a few year's and I'm just getting back into the swing of things. I was most active on TheHighRoad and 24hrcampfire but also 68forums for a bit too. My handle was either "dubya3" "vance3" or something similar to that but I have a new email these days ?
sketch Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 haha roger i skiped right over that.. right infront of me? ill check the cabinet of parts.. thank you for clarification.

It happens. When 98Z5V was trying to help me diagnose my PA10's overgas issue yesterday, it took me 3 separate posts to finally give him all the info he asked me for to help ?.

If it's a mis-matched 308 system, I can inform you of that, and you can list them individually, for what they pertain to - be it 308, or AR15.
98Z5V Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 AR15 it is. PSA gets that right. Should be a solid setup, as with any manufacturer. Odd to see AR15 parts listed in the for sale section here, without clarification - sorry for jumping your a$s...

Oh ?, well in that case: -Buffer weight- 3oz -Buffer length- 3 9/32" or 83.55mm -Spring length- 10 5/16" -Spring # of coils- 36 (I think) -Spring wire diameter- 5/64" or 2.05mm -Buffer tube outer length- 7 1/4" -Buffer tube inner lenght- 7" -Buffer tube diameter- 1 9/64" or 29.15mm Thanks for the tips, pal! Maybe next time we can do this in PM rather than on my sales post ? dubya

Like I said, I'm getting back into the hobby and this is the first forum I've joined/rejoined. I understand I'm the "new guy" and I know how the forums work (kinda ?), people can be curious of someone they haven't seen around.
