That looks interesting. I would be nice to find something adjustable. Instead I got one of the Spikes ST-T2 buffers and a "blue" Sprinco spring. I'll take the new parts along with the standard spring/buffer and hopefully some combination of them has to work. Crossing my fingers...

Let me know how it works out for you. I'm always looking for easy mods for the AR. The crosshair is awesome. I have an RRA and its heavy but the crosshair really reduced the recoil. You can tell a difference between it and a bone stock Daniel Defense. Also look at compensators, they seem to help quite a bit.

I read up on the problem at various places and decided to get a heavier buffer and heavier spring. This article was about the best I could find. If both are too much I can remove one or the other.

With an 18" barrel why not try a rifle buffer setup? I prefer them even on 16" guns depending on the setup.
