All the other buffers (rifle,CAR) have extra space inside for the weights to move and their initial positions before firing are somewhat random, which causes inconsistent cycling.
Agreed with both of you guys. The biasing spring really stabilizes cyclic rate and makes my brass fall into nice, neat little piles like no other buffer setup.
The first, critical fraction of an inch during unlocking is where a normal buffer could supply virtually ZERO mass to retard extraction if all the weights were stacked toward the rear of the cavity. This can't happen with the A5 system.
