[QUOTE="ASP785, post: 2039548, member: 12170"] A standard full auto bolt carrier weighs around 8.5oz to a little over 9oz. A JP low mass carrier weighs 6.25oz, as stated on their website. Therefore you take away 2.25oz+ from the system. The 3 steel weights in a standard carbine buffer weigh approximately 1.9oz, which is less mass than the low mass carrier removes. Considering the entire assembly acts as a system (it is all reciprocating mass)...I wonder what those same people spouting falsehoods would say about simply switching to a low mass carrier? [/QUOTE]
