Zebra644 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) Since I am going the UBR route I know I need a CAR Buffer and Spring for the Armalite SASS. Do I need to spend the money on the Slash Heavy or use the Fulton Armory standard CAR buffer and spring?

shibiwan Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 You need a DPMS LR308-length CAR buffer/spring. Approx length of the buffer is 1.5", and can come from slash or whatever company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shibiwan Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 It should. The armlite carbine buffer tube is longer but the UBR is standard CAR length - the buffer follows the tube length so it is reduced for a shorter CAR tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra644 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) ok, I know the Slash is good stuff but I am only shooting surplus ammo and 168 FGMM, non supressed. I have yet to have issues with cycling or recoil. Edited March 26, 2014 by Zebra644 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenmist Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Just double checking that it will work with Armalite AR-10 / BCG and UBR? Check with Bender on what he runs: IIRC he only uses the UBR units and knows his AR-10 platform builds. He's done many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebra644 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 ok buy once, cry once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 The UBR comes with the extension. I'd stick with an Armalite spring and Slash's heavy buffer. I use that set-up with one of my 16" carbine's (UBR, Armalite spring and CAR-10 XH buffer). She never even burps.....and recoil is outstanding. Feels almost like an AR-15. Just an opinion..........for what it's worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra644 Posted March 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 I just said screw it and ordered the combo heavy buffer and spring from Slash. Since this is a duty rifle I want it tight and right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra644 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) I got the Slash Heavy Buffer in the mail and installed, the BCG now functions properly with an empty mag and with the bolt catch. I must say very nice craftmanship now wonder his products come so highly recomended. Edited March 31, 2014 by Zebra644 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
