    It was listed on the top of their website yesterday. I just kept checking and waiting because they do it pretty often. Usually it’s just free shipping but they throw the 10% up once in a while.

    Assuming a 12.5 Carbine barrel. Then .0650

    Centurion carbine gas 12.5 barrel is that port size. Been running them for years.

    It's not the spring, it's the extra heavy buffer. An A5H2 is the same weight as a rifle buffer. An A5H3 is heavier than that.

    What is the “it” you’re referring to?

    That's a damn good question. I don't even remember what I thought I was responding to, why or what my point was. I've been working long days since starting my new job and... I'm reaching for a "Don't Drink and Drive" simile here, but it eludes my grasp.

    Somebody keep an eye on MW. I really don't want him wandering into the road, ranting to himself about inferior extractor springs...

    Which A5 buffer are you running with the Centurion 12.5?
