Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Armaspec Stealth Recoil Spring (SRS)?

The Armaspec Stealth Recoil Spring (SRS) is a self-contained, multi-stage replacement for the standard AR-15 buffer and spring. It's designed to reduce felt recoil and eliminate the metallic spring noise often heard during operation, offering a smoother shooting experience.

How does the Armaspec SRS compare to a standard AR-15 buffer spring?

A standard AR-15 buffer spring can produce an audible 'twang' and friction noise. The Armaspec SRS replaces this setup, resulting in significantly smoother and quieter operation without the metallic spring noise, contributing to a more pleasant shooting experience.

What are the benefits of installing an Armaspec Stealth Recoil Spring?

The primary benefits of the Armaspec SRS are reduced felt recoil and the elimination of operational noise, specifically the 'twang' from the standard buffer spring. This leads to a smoother, quieter, and potentially more controllable shooting experience with your AR-15.

Is installing the Armaspec Stealth Recoil Spring difficult?

No, installing the Armaspec Stealth Recoil Spring is a relatively straightforward modification. It involves a standard field strip of the AR-15, removing the old buffer and spring, and inserting the new captured spring system into the buffer tube.
