I know the AR buffer is a totally different system than what I’m proposing. But still, I have an old spring and weight I could try with just a little widening on the shotgun hole.
Also, I realize the hole isn’t angled to kick straight back. But might I see any reduction in felt recoil?
(For those not in the know, as I wasn’t last year, you can easily change the weight in the AR system. LOL, didn’t know you can pop the spring with a car key! I went up to an H3 (heaviest) and it still cycles like a dream, even with crappy .223. Wasn’t sure how much difference I was feeling until a friend and I compared with his stock Aero. Holy shit did his kick harder!)
Ah! With no BCG to hit it, it won’t really move. Knew I was missing something.
So far, so good on the H3. I’ve got about 200 rounds of crappy ammo through it, and it’s filthy. As to temps, I’ve gone 90F to 50F. Haven’t been in the cold with it this year.
