Hi everyone, I have just ordered a wolf a1 16 inch upper and I plan to put it on my spikes tactical lower. I was wondering if the gun would function well with the 17-7 Stainless Buffer Spring and
ST-T2 Buffer or whether a different buffer and spring would help functionality. Also, whether it would help to get a different buffer tube for tilt or not. I don’t know a whole lot about the differences in buffer types and springs so if there’s someone with good information to relay back to me I would appreciate it a lot. Thank you!

IMHO, run it with standard AR-15 buffer. Once you break it in and get used to it. You can start to try out different configuration see if you like it.'

I like the most is the liner recoil which feels more comfortable than the direct gas impingement. Especially during rapid fire.

Very cool, and has it been picky with any particular ammo or worked well with a certain kind?

Try stay away from steel case if possible, other than that you should be fine.
