Hi guys
Greetings from italy Yesterday i have installed on my 14"( i know its not the best for 3gun but this is what i have here) the jprifle Lmoss bolt carrier and rifle buffer, a pri adjustable gas block and a Tubb flat wire buffer spring. I tryed it with almost all close gas block. Recoil like a .22 but bolt not locked after the last round. Normal. So i tuned as it stay open at enpty mag, but im thinking... If i find a very lite buffer spring, i could close the gas on gas block having the bolt open at empty mag... Isnt it? So i need to share with you this idea and having your comments. What willbe the lightest Buffer spring on the market? May i cut a bit the buffer spring? Pro and cons of this?? Thanks Andy |

Should work. Look for a reduced power action spring and have at it!
Wolff makes reduced power (RP) springs... http://www.gunsprings.com/index.cfm?page=items&cID=2&mID=1&dID=79 Cutting the spring...won't change the spring rate, only reduce the pre-load. Theoretically it would increase the spring rate. From elsewhere: A spring is a torsion bar that has been coiled up - reduce the length of a torsion bar and it gets stronger, not weaker. Reducing the length of a coil spring (if it's under compression when installed, as most springs are) reduces the pre-load of the spring, but actually increases the spring rate.
