Gas In Yo Face

[Red Dawn]

Have you ever seen this gas vent. Looks like it eliminates excess gas to the face ejecting it out of the FA. Curious if anyone has seen or used it.



FA Gas Vent

I've seen it or something just like it. It may aid in reducing gas but it won't eliminate it. Best thing to get IMO is a WAR upper but if it's not a 556 build then I think a gas buster charging handle is the best. Of course you can use a whole bunch of anti gas measures together and it would probably work decently in conjunction with each other

I haven't been gassed by my AR9 and have had mirages coming off the can indoors. Try an 8oz buffer and a 308 carbine buffer spring and see if that helps.

I'm running an extra power spring and 11.5 oz buffer lol

WAR upper works amazingly when combined with the PRI gasbuster

I thought that upper was for 556 only?

It is.

 

[Red Dawn]

It is.

It works great too I'd like to have another for an 11.5 just cant do it at this time $$

 

[Leshaire]

It is.

I just realized this thread is about gas in general, not just 9mm lol. I was sidetracked...

Holy shit. 11.5 oz? Damn i was worried about the 7.5 oz and extra power spring. Was thinking on going to the 10 oz kaw buffer. Mine will probably never be shot unsuppressed.

I bought the Slash's Heavy Buffer adjustable kit. It goes up to 13oz. They recommend starting there and going down until it reliably holds open on the last round, like any other buffer setup. I made it down to 11.5 before it started holding open.

7.5 is like unsuppressed buffer weight in a 9mm platform.

Is that the setup you're running on the SBR you brought to the IV8888 shoot?

 

[dial1911]

@NWS did a thread awhile back where he drilled a hole in the side of the charging handle... I did the same thing and it helped a lot in my 16" suppressed AR.
