Fighting rifles are often intentionally overgassed for reliability but can become problematic when suppressed due to increased back pressure. This leads to excessive gas blowback, making the rifle uncomfortable and potentially damaging components. A cost-effective solution is upgrading to a heavier buffer spring, such as a Sprinco Red or Red/White, to better manage bolt velocity and mitigate these issues.
This video demonstrates the difference between a standard AR-15 buffer spring and an upgraded Sprinco Chrome Silicon spring. The Sprinco spring is shown to provide a smoother and quieter cycling action after installation. The comparison highlights the visual differences and the audible/tactile improvements in firearm operation.
