I was debating trying one of these in a M4 for 3-gun...anyone here ever try one? My friend just purchased one, and we were reading the instructions which states to not use with a hydralic buffer. This is what I intended to do...run a pigtail with my Enidine carbine buffer...any ideas why this may or may not work?

Second that, the pigtail is cool and is probably the better product inside 100rds, after that you run the risk of getting it hot enough that the tempering goes and it tries to straighten out. I've heard that 100rds of automatic fire will kill the tube, but if you are doing semi Auto and your stages aren't more than three magazines, I would say go ahead it might give you a performance edge in reliablility and maybe a softer recoil spike. |
I wanted to know the same thing... I say you try it first, and then post pics...  Mike  |

WHy not just use an MGI RRB buffer? By the time you buy an Enidine and some kind of specialty gas tube, you're in the similar price category as an RRB anyway. The RRB will work better to do what you want, and doesn't require you to change the gas tube. And it's fully guaranteed to do what you want, or your money back. Everybody thinks it is too expensive, until they try it. Then they swear it was worth every penny it cost. |

2 of my 3 Direct Impingment carbines will and do run an MGI RRB and a PRI Fatboy and will run it with weak ass wolf. The other one has a LMT enhanced Bolt an carrier and along with the RRB in it, it needs no fat boy. Why have a Fat Boy? It reduces cycling stress on the bolt lugs by delaying bolt opening and softens the recoil impluse. |

"2 of my 3 Direct Impingment carbines will and do run an MGI RRB and a PRI Fatboy and will run it with weak ass wolf." I was on the range yesterday with a crappy M4 with a standard gas system and tube and an H-buffer/C4IGRANT CS buffer spring that I was told was a great product... Wouldn't function with Wolf. it was short stroking- would eject but not strip the next round or lock the bolt to the rear. Now I understand how the spring lowers recoil-- the buffer probably doesn't touch [or barely touches] the rear of the tube with full power 5.56 ammo.
