| I bought a DPMS lower (complete) at a local gun show. New. I put a AP4 upper on the lower to complete my rifle. Took it out to shoot and was surprised by the amount of recoil. My question is, what is the buffer length supposed to be in this configuration, collapsible stock, and what is the correct spring length. I ordered and received a enidine buffer from bo-tach (quick service) the package is marked for .308 carbine w/ collapsible stock , but when installed the bolt will not lock back, which has me wondering if whoever put the lower together used the right components. Thanks for your imput. |

When I got home I put this together for him. It list the 5.56 and the 308 buffer lenghts/ springs and weights. CLICK ME for pdf download Being its a pdf you will need a pdf reader (adobe ect). Either way, I would recommend the Slash bufer and modified spring for use in a 308 adjustable stock setup. |
