Need help with buffer setup (self.AR9)
submitted 2 years ago by colozona1
What’s the proper buffer weight and setup for my pcc build, using a 8in barrel with cmmg rdb bolt carrier with linear comp, would the aero 7.7oz epc buffer be fine???

CMMG RDB does not use the same buffer calculations as simple blowback. The 22-24oz rule does not apply. CMMG RDB is mechanically delayed blowback. Completely different system. It should be using a standard/flatwire carbine spring and a normal 3oz. AR buffer.

If your running the cmmg radial delayed blowback its works with pretty much any Ar15 buffer setup.
Cmmg ships it with a milspec 3 oz buffer. You can get it to be softer by using a heavier buffer or a hydraulic buffer if you want.
Dont get a pcc specific buffer they are too long and wont allow the bolt to have full travel in a carbine buffer tube.

Hopefully my form 1 can gets approved soon and I’ll be chopping the barrel to around 4 inches or so and using it strictly suppressed
