After upgrading my AR's to A5 buffer systems a couple years ago per Mike's advice I can attest that they make a pretty big difference. It feels better overall, but a big thing is it gives any rifle less recoil. Buffer weights is also a big thing to look into. Most 12.5-16 inch middys will work great with h2 which most prebuilt AR's these days come with the lightest possible buffer weights.
@@jasonhensley3071 You can save money by not buying the complete VLTOR kit. Order their buffer (They're the only ones that make it) any rifle length spring, I HIGHLY recommend a flat wire from Tubbs or Strike Industries, and the AR-10 buffer tube. I got a Magpul Buffer tube Strike Industries spring and the buffer for right around $80.
I switched near every one of my carbines over to an A5 setup and guys that have fired those guns at the range were amazed at how smooth they are to shoot.
Great video, use nothing but a5’s since getting to meet Mike and having an awesome two day course about the ar15. Never stop learning, he is truly an encyclopedia of knowledge.
Good points. Although I don't shoot suppressed or have short barreled guns, I have various heavy buffers on all my mid-length and rifle length rifles. Less recoil, stronger charge back into battery, and easier on extractors.
Great video thanks. To this day I prefer my 20" AR for just plinking around as it is so smooth. I served '86 to '91 and used the A2. When I grabbed a carbine for the first time I was thinking something is wrong with this firearm. 😆 Now I'll have to make sure my carbine have the A5 extension to see if it helps.
Exactly what you said! After a 25 year sabbatical period from firing an A2, I fired a modern carbine and thought "WTF!!!". Now all my AR's have this A5 buffer tube.
I installed the A5 buffer system on one of my ARs, now I have at least 5 or 6 ARs that I have swapped over to the A5. It really does make a big improvement in the operation and cycling, And especially reliability and increasing the operational window. And who doesn't want smoother recoil?
I have a KS-47 build that I did something similar on. I didn't know about the A5 system, so I took a rifle length buffer spring and paired it with a KAK variable buffer, using the 3 tungsten weights. It really took the snap out of the 7.62x39 and has become my go to.
My first AR was a Aero Middy “build”. I can’t remember if I had put a H1 or H2 buffer in it, but it was a smooth shooter. Only problem I had was the FSB was canted. And I had only found out after I replaced it with a picatinny gas block, that the gas port was drilled off center.
i also would like to know which buffer weight youre using. im assuming you cant run a spring that is shorter than the rifle buffer spring since the buffer tube is slightly longer than a carbine length
Great stuff. I've owned plenty of guns over the last 30 years. I only got my first AR about 5 or 6 years ago. I built my first in 2020 and am now on my 4th and 5th (Yay for that!). Videos like what this channel puts forth are very informative for someone relatively new to AR's like myself. As an engineer and scientist, I'm becoming even more "caught up" in this hobby as I learn more about the inner workings. Thanks again to you both.
This is my future upgrade for my build, I've been a fan of this company for years. I'm running VLTOR MUR upper receiver, gas block, charging handle and honestly they make the best uppers, I use them on both my rifles. You have to take a piece of 2x4 and tap the receiver onto the barrel because the tolerance is so tight and when you work the bolt carrier it is very quiet and smooth right out of the box. The parent company makes Aerospace products and other things for the defense industry.
I like that someone actually engineered this to be correct, not just a cut it down and tweak it enough to run. I wish Brownell's would manufacture an adjustable gas block for various weapons. The AR would be good and I personally would like to have them for AKs. A lot of weapons are 'overgassed' as a 'band aid' for reliability issues. A correctly gassed weapon doesn't slam it's internals against the rear of the action. Nice video. Ya'll Take Care and be safe, John
@@Mrjaspgu I would start by making sure everything moves free and nothing binds. Then I would go over the entire gas system. Double checking my gas block and gas tube alignments, and check the chamber for burrs. I'm sure you have cleaned and oiled the BCG and checked the gas rings already.
From my understanding Caleb had horrible accident involving his hair and now they are 3D printing him a replacement headcovering. According to the printer it will have keymod on the sides, and a picatinny rail on the back.
Excellent presentation. That explains so many things as many people think they connect any upper to any lower is not correct. You need to get proper buffer & spring to match the upper.
This makes perfect sense. A longer buffer tube & spring, allows the buffer weight to cycle better and easier. Without slamming the back of the buffer tube. So it probably operates as smooth as a sewing machine! This would be nice on big bore guns, with heavy recoil.
I wish I had seen this before I invested in an aftermarket spring and adjustable buffer for my carbine. What he says is pure common sense but my mind was fixated on "carbine parts".
I needed to use an A5 extension with a shorty carbine buffer in my 308 AR10. A standard carbine buffer/extension combo didn’t have the really estate for the carrier to go all the way back to grab the next round or even to lock the bolt to the rear.
I guess I am just Old Corps, but I love the rifle version of the AR15/M16. I have never been fond of the adjustable stock on the carbine. My carbines both have fixed rifle length stocks with rifle buffers on them. I noticed a real improvement in the recoil department when I changed stocks. Just my two cents worth.
You can use a carbine spring and buffer in a rifle buffer tubes by inserting a plug into the tube of the rifle stock equalizing the internal capacity of the carbine
Piece your kit together., easier to find, and save some $$$$ I run a Strike Industries flat wire rifle spring, Magpul buffer tube, and VLTOR A5 -2 buffer. Runs like a sewing machine, and saved around $40.

Any advantage other than length reduction over a rifle extension? I.e. Running a PRS I assume just stick with the rifle length or am I missing something?
Buffers are being used for things they were not engineered for originally. They are there to stop bolt bounce when firing full automatic. You don’t get automatic fire when the bolt bounces it just quits. Not originally used to control bolt speed or reduce recoil. Never change buffers on full auto guns, they will not function as needed. The way Mike explains why there is a buffer shows he doesn’t know why or forgot, “more mechanically forgiving opening up the operational envelope “ that’s convoluted way of not explaining the Why.
This is one area I disagree with Mike. Adjusting the gas to the buffer gives better recoil impulse results.. With a pinned Rifle Speed adj gas block, it is quite easy to adj the gas without tools or fear of carbon lock on the adjuster plunger...
I really need something to smooth out my Bushmaster.. the dam thing kicks like a bolt gun! Had a bigger Cheapo scope on it a few years back and the rail fell off while shooting! Lol
Well you got me all worried that I have a rifle length gas system connected to a carbine length buffer system. The only trouble I have is dented Grendel case mouths from hitting the deflector. Maybe slowing it down would help with that. I have the Spike's T2 buffer with the tungsten shot and non-adjustable gas block.
I have a rifle buffer kit on my rifle length gas system grendel build and it won't eje6the brass. I'm wondering if I need to switch to a carbine buffer kit with an H1 or H2 buffer.
