Magna (WA) M4 GBBR Basic Information and FAQ

[ILLusion]

Stuck/caught on what? I've never had such a problem, so your question is pretty vague as we don't know anything else about your setup besides the "reinforced kit huang sells".

[The Chad]

The carrier won't return, it gets stuck in the buffer tube. Sorry, my op was stupid.

I had the same problem once with my WE M4, double check your buffer retaining pin is good and tight, mine had become loose and the pin was ridding to high and hanging up on the bolt when in the full reward position.

Oh I had that problem time and time again, try screwing in the buffer tube a bit more so it sits a bit more flush. Or try using speed buffers to space it out, to my understanding of your situation, your carrier is going too far back thus getting caught,

[The Chad]

Yes and I cannot find anyone who sells the speed buffers in country. The buffer tube is almost touching the buffer retainer pin so it cannot be threaded in anymore.

Does anyone think using a carbine buffer spring or maybe stretching out my existing spring may help?


Thanks for the help guys.

[GBBR]

Parts sells them. Do what I did. Quarters...

[The Chad]

They did sell them, don't anymore.

Thanks for the help guys.

Many buffer kits actually just come with a pile of washers... that's what I'm using as well. Other kits use a urethane bumper. They respond differently, but both will ultimately perform the same goal, that is, limiting rearward movement of the bolt carrier.

Take an inner measurement of the buffer tube, and get a half dozen steel washers from Home Depot that will fit.

[The Chad]

Thanks, definitely going to do that.

[The Chad]

Washers worked amazingly. Still nice kick but shorter stroke.

Can someone please Give me a list of the different types of lubricants I will need for my GBBR and where I can buy them? Thanks

[The Chad]

I haven't used any so far.
