Any advice on the buffer and buffer spring?
A5 buffer system any day and twice on Sunday.
Also I did had an issue with installing the forward assist. The nub that is supposed to push the bolt forward does not always come forward at the right angle, can this damage the bolt somehow?
Something must be screwed up. Recheck it.
Definitely going with a DD barrel, gas block, gas tube and probably their DDM4 quad rail.
Not a bad choice, but check out our BRT OPTIMUM barrels before you pull the trigger.
And just for clarification the gas port on the barrel and the port on the gas block have to be the same size correct?
No. Gas block ports and tube ports have "standard" sizes which are quite a bit bigger than most barrels, and are pretty universal.
The diameter of the gas block journal does need to match, but there are generally only two choices, .750 and .625
The gas port in the barrel is very important and should be sized by the factory correctly. Many barrel manufacturers oversize the gas port, creating an over gassed situation, so do your research.
Thank you and have a great day.
Enjoy the build.
