I know this should probably be asked in the AR15.com forum, but I like this one better. What difference does it make to use a carbine buffer in a rifle or the other way around? What is the difference in the carbine and rifle buffer springs? Is one longer or stronger than the other?
 
Re: AR buffers

Rifle buffer and tube are longer than the carbine buffer and tube. They are not interchangable from what I understand..you have a carbine tube you use a carbine buffer and vice versa.

Can't help much re: the question...
I highly recommend the m4carbine.net forums for AR info -- I think of it as the equivalent of the Hide for carbine/AR related stuff.
