Stuken89 Posted July 31, 2018 Report Posted July 31, 2018 Hi yall I'm haveing a hard time understanding what buffer I need to get I will be using a standard milspec tube and a tubbs flat spring I've read that an adjustable gas block is very helpful will also be getting one of those
jtallen83 Posted July 31, 2018 Report Posted July 31, 2018 Is this a rifle length or carbine? If Carbine what is the inside depth measurement? Pictures will be beneficial.
Stuken89 Posted July 31, 2018 Author Report Posted July 31, 2018 Carbine I believe I have yet to purchase the buffer tube I'm open to suggestions on what buffer I should get
jtallen83 Posted July 31, 2018 Report Posted July 31, 2018 Read this thread, one of many here that explains what works and what doesn’t; Search Vltor and Armalite buffer tube or extension and you will have a flood of info.
edgecrusher Posted July 31, 2018 Report Posted July 31, 2018 I would skip the adjustable gas block and say this for two reasons. It is easier to build the rifle and get it running without having to diagnose too many different things if you’re having issues. Having a regular low-profile gas block will illuminate gas as an issue to a certain extent or make it easier to diagnose a gas issue right off the cuff. Unless you absolutely plan on running suppressedI’d hold off on the adjustable gas block. I say this for two reasons.
