Yes. It quickens the cyclic time so you get a rocking motion since AR’s were designed for a longer cartridge. It’s already a very soft shooter so it doesnt need the full travel to prevent the bcg from hammering parts.
@@jackwickerI currently have a kynshot RB5000HP that my buddy was selling in it. It just dampens the end of the stroke a bit more. Since I already have it, i’ll continue to use it. I dont feel that it’s a necessary component, I’d be just as happy with the carbine buffer setup that’s in this video.
@@ZEE0H6 gotcha. I have a maxim Defense Roller Delayed Buffer behind a conventional ar9 upper, and it's definitely an improvement over a blowback ar9 with a Kynshot buffer, but not on the level of the JP5 or how I imagine the MEAN upper is. Have you had the chance to compare your setup to a JP5?
@@jackwickerI havent had a chance to try a JP-5. The RO in the video is the only person I know that has shot one. His opinion was that it wasnt a big enough difference between a JP-5 and his GMR-15 setup. No idea what lockpiece or how the JP-5 he shot was setup. His GMR-15 handloads would not cycle my gun with the P lifter installed, so it must be a very soft load. He shot mine with factoty Fiocchi and was very impressed with it and looked into getting one.
Do you feel like short stroking it has benefitted the recoil impulse noticeably?

@@ZEE0H6 any plans to try it with a hydraulic buffer?
