    Perhaps it might help if someone could explain the difference in the recoil action between say a Colt 14.5 barrel with a .063 gas port when using an H buffer and standard spring vs an H2 and a Sprinco Blue. Compare that with an over gassed system using the same components. If I missed a simple explanation using search I apologize.

    Just depends on how much it is over gassed. I have seen GP's range of .068 all the way to the .080 range. Big difference and that makes it kind of hard to compare.

    I take each gun on a case by case basis. I also look at whether or not the weapon is going to be suppressed and the type of ammo that is commonly used.

    Due to your post, I feel I should interject something here about the reference to recoil in my experiments with these buffers / springs, etc…

    Reliable function was my primary objective.
    My reference to recoil probably should have been referred to as muzzle rise as that was the secondary occurrence I was trying to observe, although it’s likely that the two go hand in hand in most cases.

    Recoil is what you feel when you fire a gun.
    Muzzle rise is what you see of course.

    As stated, what functions for me is the H buffer, Springco blue spring, and BCM BGC. Suppressed and unsuppressed.
    The recoil / muzzle rise is what it is for this configuration because it’s a secondary consideration for me.

    “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.”Thomas Jefferson, quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria in “On Crimes and Punishment”, 1764
