Re: changes to ar for a can

you can get a Gas Buster charging handle. Other then that you will be fine.

No problems or changes on my LMT/AAC SPR M4 but the flash suppressor- no problems noted.

I do a clamp on Noveske switch block and a gas buster makes a huge difference.

If you are planning on doing a lot of rapid shooting--you will want a gas buster. They kinda suck buying at $90, but they are worth it.

Or you can use about 10 cents worth of RTV!

I have a PRI Gas Buster on my RRA 16", doesn't make much of a difference to me with my M4-2000, even during rapid fire.

I've tried the Gasbuster on a couple of my AR's and I think they might have made a little differance but not $80-$90 worth. I replaced mine with Steel charging handels after seeing one fail.

The best thing for keeping gas out of your face wehn running a can on and AR is a piston

how much does this thing weigh?I had the same configuration,A.R.M.S./suppressor/ACOG with an M4-2000 and it was a tad bit heavy for me for comfortable and enjoyable shooting.

Or just get a surplus gas mask.
