Just me and my iPhone at the range. Got up early wondering WTF I was gonna do because nobody else gets up until later. Came up with a good idea.

Thanks for posting that - sounds good to me :party29:

. BTW, what's the barrel length?

It's a 5.5" TROS 3-lug. Suppressor is a Gemtech Multimount.

Lots of great information in this thread!

These guys are terrible to deal with. Listed price is $75 (already too much), go to checkout and it jumps to $90 (I'm thinking, OK, maybe they included shipping?) - Nope, shipping is an extra $11-45 depending on what you select. This buffer better ship out today. What a scam!

Heavybuffers.com?

They don't always have them made and it can take some time.

Yeah.

Probably something else they should post on their site in addition to "price reflects 20% discount for NOT checking out."

You ordered it w/ the Wolf spring too. $75 w/o. $90 w/. You need to read more carefully when you are ordering things

Yeah, I know, but this is misleading.

Oh, I see. Yes, that is misleading. I've always clicked on the link and go to the 9mm buffer page which shows both. I've ordered several time from him. Seems like a nice guy, maybe send him an email. He's CLEARLY not a web programmer

I have the 8.5 ounce. Had it out today. Here is a video I did comparing different loads.

Damn it.....I promised my self I wouldn't do this again but it looks like I'm going to have to build a 9mm.....damn. Can I run it with my saker 762?

No. The Saker is too small. Time for another can.

IS that a pistol setup or a MD pre ban SBR? I have a 7.5" YHM upper that I never got around to building before the ban, even though I had the lowers :banghead:

Pre-ban SBR. OAL 22"

As clandestine said, you want to run the heaviest buffer/spring combo you can get in the 9mm AR when shooting suppressed.

Kaw Valley Precision makes a nice solid 10oz buffer for the 9mm AR style blow back set-up. I believe it only costs $58.

Im just looking for feedback on this 10oz buffer. I currently am using the Spikes Tactical ST-9X buffer which weighs in at around 7.7 oz. However, I will soon be shooting with a suppressor and just curious if I should get a heavier buffer or stick with the ST-9X?

Yes, buy the heaviest buffer you can get. Install a Tubb .308 Flatwire spring in it too.

I followed this advice and went with the 12 ounce 9 Q-T buffer. The gun runs great and is noticeably quieter.

Chad also went over the entire rifle since it ran like shit and i didnt feel like sending it back to CMMG again. Runs great now!

Makes me smile. Thanks Brian.

Is there anything similar that can be done for a .300 BO pistol length running a H2 buffer?

SCARCQB · Nov 14, 2018

115 grain Winchester white box on a spikes brown recluse, 8.5 oz buffer.
