Taming gas to face with 9mm ar.

[jesuvuah]

So I just built a new 9mm ar upper. It is a new frontier armory side charging glock upper, with ballistic advantage 8" barrel with a kmr handguard.

I went with a side charging handle to try to tame gas to my face when shooting suppressed(which is most of the time). My previous standard charging handle did give me quite a bit of gas to my face. Unfortunately this set up may be a tad better, but if I do rapid fire, I still get lots of gas to the face. I think most of it is coming out of the ejection port, but it is also seeping out of every other crevice on the pistol also.

I am using a heavy buffer 9q buffer right now. Thinking of jumping up to the 9qt 12.5 oz buffer. Has anyone gone from the 9q to the qt and seen a noticeable difference in gas?

Maybe I should try the scorpion evo and give up on the ar 9 lol.
