Guys I'am having troulble by using the 9mm buffer and a standard carbine spring. The  B/C  will not go all the way back .....its like the spring is binding up with the 9mm buffer but works fine the standard carbine buffer.........

Your case is not all that unusual.  Obviously, you don't want to fire it like that.  You might have to try a couple different carbine springs to find one that will work.  Brownells carries a few different ones, such as #989-015-008 (5 pack for $13.39 retail).  I know that spring will fit on the Colt 9mm buffer and the DPMS CAR-15 Heavy Buffer.  

What buffer/spring are you using?  Are you swapping the parts out do to a problem, or just because?

Make sure the spring will compress the entire length of the buffer w/o binding, like this...
