SpairParts Posted December 22, 2018 Author Report Posted December 22, 2018 I would have ordered that spring but it is listed as being 14 1/8 long. Armalite spec shows the spring as being 13 3/4 long So seems like that's the wrong spring?

I've been shopping from them since 2010 - they are beyond legit. That's the part number you need - and they list the part number. They won't fail you.

If it comes in and you think it's screwed up for some reason - I'll give you my buy-back guarantee. I'll buy it from you for what you paid, including what you had to pay for shipping - and shipping to me.

Spring is probably wrong but damn i cant find the Armalite spring in stock that 98Z posted or one with the proper spec he listed either. Tubb's Flat Wire Spring will work in both systems , yes Carbine or Rifle , DPMS or AR 10 , just an option if you can't find one . You would be surprised on how well they work .

I offer that buy-back not very often - it's usually for the guys that are on the fence. Hey, I recommended it, and you don't like it - AND I had to talk you into it? You think it sucks, and I'll give you your money back - when you send it to me. That's just my word, man. I know what works - but if it didn't work for you, and I told you it would... I stand behing what I said, and I don't want you to be out anywhere, on anything.

You would be surprised on how well they work . That's the benefit of the Tubbs Flatwire - DPMS AND Armalite recoil systems... The Armalite EA1095 spring works for rifle and carbine 308ARs, but you will coil bind it if you use it in that screwed up 7.000" receiver extension with that shortass 2.500" buffer - that is ALWAYS too light... Don't care what the coil-bind specs say, I've done it. Bound one up, in that dumbass 7.000" experiment with the 2.500" shorty buffer. If I ran a rifle receiver extension on a .308AR, I'd run the EA1095 spring. My $0.02. Damn, I forgot - I have one .308AR with the rifle stock, and it DOES have the EA1095 spring in it... Set me back 8 bucks for it, too. Edited December 23, 2018 by 98Z5V
SpairParts Posted December 29, 2018 Author Report Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) Well got a few parts in. Still waiting for my Buffer tube and Stock. New gas tube is installed. The spring you(98Z5B) had me order measures perfect at 13 3/4 inch. Sure enough the web sight has the length listed wrong. Edited December 29, 2018 by SpairParts upload better pics
SpairParts Posted January 3, 2019 Author Report Posted January 3, 2019 Finally got the rest of my parts. Luth-AR Rifle buffer tube measures 9-11/16 inside. Luth-AR Rifle buffer weighs 5.39OZ. Scale probably off a little. Measures 5-3/16 long. With the old buffer set up the felt rifle recoil was what i believe slightly less the a 5.56. Got to get the parts changed over and hopefully ill find out this weekend.

SpairParts Posted January 4, 2019 Author Report Posted January 4, 2019 Yup. Just hope she is still a soft shooter. On of the reasons i like it so much!
SpairParts Posted January 5, 2019 Author Report Posted January 5, 2019 Just got done putting 50 rounds through it ? FKN love shooting this gun! Anyway the new gas tube and proper buffer set up seems to have cured the problem of the spent casings looking like they were hot loads for the most part. They still do have a very slight shiny spot where the ejector pin rests against the case. With Federal 165G fusion rounds they are perfect looking. Think i can still work on the adjustable gas block a little at the cases are ejecting at about 4 o'clock so i think its a little over gassed? Recoil is slightly more i think but still pretty soft and NOTHING like my sons 450 Bushmaster. That fucker left my shoulder bruised after 10 rounds. Thanks guys for helping to get this PA10 set up right!
98Z5V Posted January 5, 2019 Report Posted January 5, 2019 Right on, man - I love seeing these things run like they are supposed to. So, my info wasn't bad, huh? You know, considering that I'm "just an assembler..."

SpairParts Posted January 5, 2019 Author Report Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) I SOOOOO wanted to post this on that thread but was at work when it got shut down. Would rather take the word of all the assemblers here then a internet expert. Edited January 5, 2019 by SpairParts i fucken wanted to!
