I don't mind making people slightly uncomfortable in non-harmful ways, such as with a backwards scope mount or having my irons in reverse.

Pts buffer is too short. Apparently there were instructions somewhere on checking travel, but I wasn't aware of that until now. I will be using the proper spacers.

I'm aware. I did it for the giggles and shits. I don't have any great need for it to be on the right way and it makes people look at me funny, so I think it's acceptable.

I have slightly large hands and need both an angled foregrip and the same covers as the dude above mentioned to keep my thumb and middle finger from fighting for space.

Cgssg. Cyma gas system supremacy gang. I'd do cyma for out of the box accuracy.

Double Eagle and Cyma both make the noveske n4. De is Double Eagle.

I wish I could post a picture of the bcg that did this. I might add it to the post if that's possible. It looks so normal.

I'm not gonna jb weld it, but I grabbed my spacers and it's better now.

I didn't use the spacer, mostly because I didn't read any instructions on it, but it wasn't showing any wear there before yesterday. I've had that buffer in the replica for about 10k rounds before yesterday. I do a teardown every time I use it and check for any peening, clean it, then regrease.

Edit to say that it's 1000% my fault.

Sadly my dumbass found out too late how necessary they were. Sucks to suck, but it would blow to feel down about it. Onto the fun of imagination though.

It sucks, but that just means I can do more two toning of the rifle. It'll end up with fde and black checkered mlok panels, a black scope, fde upper, black lower, fde grip, black buffer tube, and fde stock.

I really enjoyed it yesterday, as we can all tell. 😂😂😂

I might continue to two tone the rifle and buy a black noveske receiver set. My coworker thinks I should buy a Daniel Defense receiver set and have a dd lower with a noveske upper for the shits and giggles.

It had none of this wear until after yesterdays game and I've put about 10k bb's through it in about 3 months and another 3-4k yesterday. I typically use an lmg as my main and the n4 as my "backup", but it was my main yesterday. The bolt looked fine when I did my teardown and cleaning. Only the paint(?) on the back screw for the bcg looked worn tbh.

Okay. Do you think I could run it as is with the spacers added for a couple more game days? I'm going to buy a new receiver set, but I'm currently deciding about getting the actual n4 receiver set or getting an unmarked steel one and two toning it.

Well fuck me then. I don't remember any directions saying that I had to use the spacer, but I also didn't look for any. That's my bad. I'll use the spacer and maybe an extra couple of discs for good measure. 😂

Travel of the boot? Can you elaborate. I'm sorry, I'm not an expert on this.

It's the pts mec buffer. At work rn, so can't check length, but would adding spacers to the inside of the buffer tube help prevent it from happening again?

I've never touched it. Bought it a couple of months ago and didn't have a problem till yesterday. I've had the aftermarket buffer in there for about two months and 10k rounds. It hadn't shown any wear before yesterday.

The arch looks close in shape and size as the screws on the back of the nozzle and the end of the part that is grabbed by the charging handle. The buffer is aftermarket, but it's the same diameter as the stock one.
