Guys I built a dissipator AR with a barrel from Del ton. It keeps

>Should I just swap in a carbine spring and buffer?
you cant unless you swap out the whole tube to a carbine.
are you sure its not the ammo as in youve tried real 5.56 not just tula or wolf?
contact delton

>>34484177
that's the problem with pissipators, not enough gas.

You can take the weights out of your buffer. it probably won't do much but it's free. The ideal fix would be an adjustable gas block.

>>34484177
try a carbine spring with the rifle buffer

YOU DON'T SAY

>>34484262
My dissy runs just fine, OP's just retarded or something, although I have mid-length gas and a carbine buffer so maybe that's something to do with it

>>34484293
you have a mock disappator. a real disappator is what he has and all the problems that come with a gas system too long for its barrel. yours looks like one but actually works.

>>34484222
It wouldnt run with tula or the 556 I had. I had a similar issue with my 10.5 AR pistol also which was fixed by swapping springs and buffers. Was just trying to figure out step one

>>34484177
Infact yeah, I think that's your problem OP, your gas system is so far out with not enough barrel in front of it so your dwell time is shit and it short-strokes like crazy

>>34484293
he has the wrong buffer and spring combination is all, needs to get a carbine spring and buffer and swap until it works

>>34484293
>mid length
there you go. The 16" barrel and the rifle gas tube leaves you with little time to build gas pressure before the bullet is gone.

don't people sell muzzle devices that help retain gas pressure in the barrel? like that krinkov muzzle break?

I mean when researching the look when building mine, that's what I found was the problem with the originals, so I purposely avoided that lol

I picked up an 18" during the salad days sales just on a whim and it short strokes too. From research it looks like the answer is a new gas system, but i was wondering about replacing the buffer/spring.

Has anyone had experience with this?

1) reduce buffer weight
2) reduce spring weight
3) enlarge gas port

thx

>tfw Ernest Borgnine is dead

>>34484352
a lighter buffer and spring will help. but who knows if it will help enough

>>34484407
its a rifle tube its not a carbine there are no different weights and other endless variations

>>34484431
yes there are
you name it there is a part for an AR

Do people sell spacers to let you use carbine buffers in rifle tubes?

>>34484317
Try quality ammo before anything else.

this fucking retard built what he /calls/ a dissy: 16 barrel with rifle gas? and is surprised at is not working

OP fucking stop: did you not grasp the fundamental concept?

He did build a dissipator. Faux dissipators just work better because they arent' undergassed.

And the concept is to achieve rifle style soft recoil but with a short barrel

question: are there fixed a1/sp1 style uppers that k recommends?

>>34484504
real dissapators work if they are built properly, delton and bushmaster have been selling them longer than the term mock dissapator has been around. the dissapator is unreliable concept came from people making their own by chopping down 20s.
theres the possiblity delton fucked up in which case op should contact them and have them fix it.
theres the other more valid possibility that op fucked up with his parts or ammo choice.
if it truly is the gasport size op shouldnt be fucking around with a drillbit. its factory fuckup. parts have warranties and he should take full advantage of it.

Drill the gas port out wide like ya mom's vagina...
