AR-15 BS Thread

so whats the buffer look like? A regular buffer just out of tungsten?

 

Not sure what LCS means? Its a switch that has a hardwire to a tail cap for the streamlight. Ill take better pics later

 

Light Control System from Cloud Defensive

 

This. I have the same on my AR15 pistol.

 

Fancy FDE

 

It had to match my multiple guns that were Krylon'd in tan-based camo lol.

 

LCS is the tape switch mount that Cloud sells. Not sure if they sell them with the tape switch other than buying a HLX combo. Your price is good

 

I dig it

 

You can buy it separately from the switch and mount. That's what I did.

Thanks, bro

 

Visiting Florida and after an escape room I went next door to a gun shop and was talking to the employee and ended up buying an armaspec contained recoil spring assembly.
I’ve never seen them before and I was considering getting a JP silent capture system but the guy gave me 10% off so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try it.

Would this help tame the muzzle flip in a DPMS Oracle? Obvious newb to AR here.

 

You would need a muzzle device directing the gas for that.

 

If you get it the proper weight it will (allegedly) soften the recoil impulse which will help keep you flatter, but a muzzle brake is the most effective way to make a rifle shoot flat.
I mainly got it to eliminate the “sprong” noise that can be heard with the standard buffer system when shooting suppressed.

 

You try a Super 42? That spring got rid of the "sproing" noise on my AR15s.

Also, that noise is normal and there's zero reason to get rid of it.

Edit: And now I see you already mentioned them.... And the one you got is way cheaper! Have you shot it yet?

 

I have not, I’ve heard rave reviews about the JP system and have been meaning to pick one up and decided to try this alternative that’s a decent bit cheaper.
I find it slightly irritating to listen to when I’m shooting suppressed, it’s not necessary to get rid of it but I’d like to experiment with different systems.

I haven’t installed it or shot it yet but I did some light reading on both ARF and another gun review blog and the guys who run them say they work well. I’m excited to try it.
I’ll also be stepping up from an H to H2 buffer so that should help the recoil impulse be a bit softer, I probably could’ve gone with the H3 between the 11.5” barrel and suppressor but we’ll see how the H2 feels.

 

There may be no functional reason to get rid of that noise, but I absolutely detest it. It gives me the impression that the rifle is a piece of shit even when it isn't

 

Basically

 

The JP system is supposed to be quiet, but so is the Geissele Super 42. If you're looking to get rid of the noise, I can at least verify the reliability of the Super 42 as I run it in 3 AR15s.

 

A spring bouncing in a tube is going to make noise.
