Deep autism. Any reason I shouldn't use the A5 buffer on a 16" barrel?
There's nothing preventing it.
Buffer system and barrel length are not dependent. There's a set spring rate and reciprocating mass that is optimal for all 5.56 guns.
Any deviation from this is due to spring or reciprocating mass being used as a band-aid for improper gassing.
Appreciate the work you put in on this. It’s above my competency but will be a great reference
