[ARCHIVED THREAD] - which length buffer tube?

Posted: 2/6/2007 12:39:26 PM EDT

I am putting together my first build using a rifle length gas system,

I have never thought to look at this until now, but do I need a rifle length buffer tube and Rifle buffer for it to properly work? or will a carbine length tube and buffer work.

or are the tubes the same length? I Know, dumb question but will someone help me out?

Thanks
