    Rifle gas buffer advice

    Hey guys,

    Running an 18" in rifle length gas with adjustable block.

    I was planning on running a Sprinco blue/enhanced spring and Spike Heavy buffer.

    Does this setup have any known issues?

      18" RLGS has lower port pressure, and limited dwell time, so you won't need adjustable gas. You need all the gas you can get.

      You might find that the standard carbine weight buffer works well with that set-up.
