-They dont have F Marked FSB's for the Carbine/Removable Carry Handle Variants

-The Buffer/Action Springs are on the 5%+ side
-The Gas Ports are about 20% larger than they need to be. I know WHY they do this (Reduced ammo sensitivity, thus reduced returns), but it makes the guns overgassed.

Actually now that I'm thinking about this, I have a couple noob questions.




So if someone buys a Windham with removable carry handle, the FSB it comes with is not compatible? I thought standard BUIS were the same height as detachable carry handles. So they're selling you a detachable carry handle model that cant be used correctly with the factory FSB? That's messed up.

Do you mean the buffer springs are stiffer than normal? Wouldn't this be a good thing, if the guns are overgassed? Also, if someone threw an H3 buffer in there, that would assist the overgassing problem, right?

You can get it to hit POI/POI but you may have to adjust the Front SIght to its limits to get proper impact. Detachable Carry Handle Equipped weapons require a F Height FSB to have proper sight alignment.







Yes, you are correct but the gun shouldnt be overgassed from the start. A Stronger Buffer Spring/Action Spring or H Buffer will likely remedy overgassing. Guns are often overgassed to reduce the likleyhood of short stroking on weak ammo or steel cased ammo that has lots of blowby. The problem with this is if you are using a heavy spring and buffer to offset overgassing and have bolt bounce you now have to high end tuning limit left to eliminate bolt bounce with a heavier buffer or spring combination.
