| Is there a recommended buffer weight for this system? I am running an H2 buffer and having cycling issues. |

The GXR-35 was and is designed as a drop in kit for the standard military M4 rifle, which still uses a standard CAR type buffer(at least for a little while longer).
To assist you more I would like to know the type of issue your having? Also the parts used in your rifle and the types of ammuntion used? Thanks |

SIR style handguards, the Vltor CAS-V (with very slight modification), one by Midwest and the LWRC model. I'm under the impression that there is a thread somewhere on arfcom that addresses the different handguards that folks have used with the GXR-35 drop-in kits; if I can find it I'll post the link here. |

Ive been looking around and havent found a thread talking about what HGs fit. If i modified the Midwest SS Series barrel nut, do you think it would fit/work? I just dropped off MI SS barrel nut with the machinist to have one turned from steel.
I'm open to other HGs, but i'd like to stick with the "longer" HGs on the market. how about the spikes BAR set up? 1.79 ID? |

From the installation pdf drawing on your website, the gas piston bolt carrier appears to be "M16" configuration on the bottom (where it would contact the auto sear). I own an M16...is the bolt carrier M16 style on the bottom such that it would work in full auto firing?
Thank you |

Thanks There are several rail handguard options that work quite well with the GXR-35. Some that immediately come to mind are the Midwest drop-in handguards for pistons and the Daniel Defense Gas Piston Omega Rail. The Midwest is excellent but not free floating; the Daniel Defense is also excellent but is free floating. So price and free float considerations will be you main drivers between the two. Thanks.
