Duration: 5:51

This video introduces the BCM MK2 recoil buffer system, highlighting its rifle-length buffer tube design which is longer than standard carbine tubes. The system includes a new buffer spring and buffer, intended to increase the travel distance of the bolt carrier group to reduce felt recoil. The presenter plans to install this system on a BCM M13 upper and test its performance.

Quick Summary

The BCM MK2 recoil buffer system is an upgrade for AR-15 platforms designed to reduce felt recoil. It features a rifle-length buffer tube that is longer than standard carbine tubes, increasing the travel distance of the bolt carrier group for improved recoil mitigation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the BCM MK2 recoil buffer system?

The BCM MK2 recoil buffer system is an upgrade for AR-15 platforms designed to reduce felt recoil. It features a rifle-length buffer tube that is longer than standard carbine tubes, increasing the travel distance of the bolt carrier group.

How does the BCM MK2 buffer system reduce recoil?

The BCM MK2 system uses a longer buffer tube, approximately 3/4 to 1 inch longer than typical carbine tubes. This increased length allows the bolt carrier group more travel distance, which theoretically absorbs more energy and reduces the felt recoil experienced by the shooter.

What components are included in the BCM MK2 recoil buffer system?

The BCM MK2 recoil buffer system typically includes a new buffer spring, a new buffer, and a new, longer rifle-length buffer tube. These components work together to modify the firearm's recoil impulse.

Why might a firearm content creator avoid showing installation videos on YouTube?

Firearm content creators may avoid showing installation videos due to YouTube's content moderation policies, which can lead to video strikes or demonetization. The presenter in this video specifically mentions this concern after a previous video was removed.
