| I have a DD MK18 with a Law Folder and Im wanting to upgrade to either a Vltor A5 or the BCM MK2. Is there any compatibility issues length of recoil spring buffer etc with the Law Folder? |
|
I have the same setup, DDMK18 & Law folder. I would think that if a buffer system will work in a carbine stock, it should work in that configuration… Ill be interested in your results… |
I don't need therapy. I just need someone to rob me at the gas station so I can let it all out.

In fact they used to run that as a disclaimer on their website. They might still do, I haven’t been back to their website in years. |

FWIW... And I would ask KAK if this could be used in a 5.56.... https://kakindustry.com/lightweight-bolt-carrier-extension And if someone wanted a heavier version... ( for a 9MM or such ) https://kakindustry.com/heavy-bolt-carrier-extension |

So this rifle will have a rc4 suppressor on it most of the time. Waiting on the can so for now it’s unsuppressed. What buffer weight do I need? I see there’s a ah3 and a ah4. |

I see there’s a ah3 and a ah4. All the A5s are equivalent to a standard buffer weight +1. So an A5H2 is equal to an H3, and so on. The LAW plug is also a couple ounces, so I’d go with an A5H2, which would end up being around the same weight as an H4 if you add the LAW plug. |
