Q:Is it safe to use with out adjustable gas block ? I ordered one of these and received it today ! It says it need to have an adjustable gas block to work or will it even work?

A: The following is posted on the item description page from which you loaded the item into your shopping cart and purchased it:
"... Requires an adjustable gas system (either adjustable gas block or adjustable gas key/carrier)..."
We can't help it if you didn't see , read, or comprehend the information within the item's description. If the manufacturer says that an adjustable gas system is *required*, what would make you question if it safe to use without an adjustable gas system?

Q:What are the dimensions on this recoil buffer? It looks short with no rubber padding. I assume the design is to put so little gas into the system it doesn't actually need to buffer the recoil into the stock, just depress enough to return battery?

Q:What will happen if you use this buffer spring kit with a non adjustable gas block.
Asked by: Oscar
- 2/6/2020
A: Since these buffers embody a mass reduction versus the normal buffer weight and since this buffer spring's strength is reduced versus a normal buffer spring, the unregulated gases will likely cause the buffers to slam into the end of the buffer tube. Probably not advisable. Thanks for the inquiry. Tactical Link

Q:Will this buffer and spring system work with a 12.5 inch 6.5 grendel pistol and a 16 inch 6.5 grendel carbine?
Both weapons have adjustable gas and lowmass bcg's.
16 inch has mid length gas and 12.5 inch has carbine gas. Both are running jp carbine springs and standard weight carbine buffers at the moment.
So will this buffer and spring system help me reduce recoil a bit more and still run reliably?

Q:Hi I have a 300 aac rifles that I bought for a plinker
It does not function with subsonic handloads 180 or 230 gr lead, I have been using IMR 4227 at 8.5 to 17 gr. with sonic crack at about 12 gr.
I checked the gas port it's 1/8" and aligned properly (carbine length gas tube)
The buffer weight is 2.77 oz and seems filled with powder so it doesn't rattle.
I am considering getting a nemo reduced weight spring but am concerned that it won't strip and chamber rounds reliably.
Or if this item would make my rifle a reliable plinker with handloads

Q:I have an AR-15 with 16" barrel, carbine gas system, and a railed gas block. I cannot get it to cycle reliably with lower end .223. It will usually fire, eject, and reset the trigger, but will not strip the next round off of the magazine. Would The taccom lightweight spring and buffer help with this issue. I tried a heavy buffer and it seemed to make the problem worse. Thanks.
