    Question AR15 Silent Recoil Spring System - Any experience with this one?

    Howdy Everyone,

    New to the forums and have enjoyed engaging with this knowledgeable community. Been looking to upgrade my AR15 recently - really want to remove that twang sound.

    Found this Silent Recoil Spring System from JE Machine Tech on sale. I usually like to take my time on these kinds of decisions. But the sale ends on Sunday, and the price feels a little too good to pass up.

    https://hunterselectusa.com/product/...spring-system/

    Do any of you have any experience with this spring system? Any thoughts on JE Machine Tech as a brand?

    Appreciate the insights!

    I'm a fan of lightly greasing (Slip2000 EWG) the standard action spring. Does the same thing, and only costs a few pennies.

    I’m going. To lean toward your being accurate: “...the price feels a little too good...”

    Perhaps I don’t shoot enough, but I’ve never been annoyed by noise from the buffer and spring. Were I so annoyed, I would probably purchase the original:

    To quote Jeff Cooper "an ingenious solution to a nonexistent problem". I would lump this in with adjustable gas blocks, adding complexity to simple systems that work, why?

    i had the will power to not buy guns. I even bought a gun store and work for a company that manufactures the forging machines for said guns. I need help.

    Nope but the military shoots suppressed a lot with nary a adjustable gas block in sight.

    They also use a very loud can with no back pressure

    Appreciate all of the insight! I guess I'm a little sensitive to certain movement sounds with my AR.

    Ended up purchasing one of the Silent Recoil Systems - I'll let y'all know how it goes.

    I also really like that Slip2000 EWG trick georgeib! Definitely gonna try it.

    According to what kind of rifle. A nice real mil spec buffer tube with dry film will be a good bit quieter than a cheap tube. Way smoother, less scratchy
