I wish I would have read those posts a couple days ago. I built a dissy using a Del-Ton barrel with a .098 port. Would not lock back with a rifle buffer. Next range trip I broke my box of buffer parts as well as a spacer and carbine spring. Rifle buffer with all aluminum weights still wouldn't lock back.
Put in the spacer and carbine spring, ended up at 2.1 (HF scale that I bought for this extravaganza) and about 75 percent lock back. Ejecting around 4:00 to 5:00. Didn't cycle as smooth as my mid=lengths. So I removed the FSB and drilled the gas port to .110. I used a #39, a #37, and a #35 bit for the final and it pinned at .111.
Haven't shot it yet.
Wished I'd read those posts earlier, I'd have put foam in the carbine buffer and tried that.

Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President... - Theodore Roosevelt, Lincoln and Free Speech, Metropolitan Magazine, Volume 47, Number 6, May 1918.
Every Communist must grasp the truth. Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party Mao Zedong, 6 November, 1938 - speech to the Communist Patry of China's sixth Central Committee
