AR-15 Podcast 151 – Gas Tubes and Buffers

By Jake Challand

DeKalb, Illinois – Episode 151 of the AR-15 Podcast features Reed Snyder and J.D., and they bring you a discussion on gas tubes and buffers. The guys start off with some house keeping. If you are a winner of any of the Otis giveaways, be sure to contact the hosts and claim your prize! There is a short grace period for unclaimed prizes; don’t let yours go to someone else! Additionally, the guys announce the winner of the Vortex Prism 1x optic so tune in to find out if you are a lucky winner.

The main topic of discussion of the show is gas tubes and buffers. What size gas tube is appropriate for your rifle? Of course, the answer to that depends on your rifle. Is it an AR pistol? Or is it a full sized rifle? On the other hand, what weight buffer should you use to optimize the performance? The guys walk through some thoughts on buffer weights and brands to consider for your next build. And finally, we get some listener feedback as food for thought.
