[QUOTE="uncle money bags, post: 2750578, member: 8377"] Shriner- the Vltor A5 system is a proprietary buffer system that consists of a receiver extension, buffer and rifle length spring. The receiver extension is little longer than the carbine length tube and the buffer is in between carbine and rifle length. The combination of longer spring, tube and heavier buffer allows the use of a collapsible stock while maintaining rifle length reliability. Basically it is a way to slow down the cyclic rate and reduce bolt bounce. I consider it very worthwhile on a short barrel gun, if it is over gassed. It may have minimal impact on a longer gun. Honestly, it is probably overkill unless you have a really over gassed longer barreled rifle, and I wouldn't consider it unless you don't get any satisfaction using the method above. Having said that, it does make a difference in felt recoil over a carbine length receiver extension system. [/QUOTE]
