Special buffer systems work, but they take much more time and make diagnosing any future issues doubly difficult. IE - is it X, or the buffer system...?
Sticking with the regular carbine buffer system and just shortening the barrel to meet your local laws better. You're losing 25fps by taking the length hit.
I did a little math with the numbers that the super mod put up for barrel length vs muzzle fps. I'm looking at losing around 40 fps or a little more per inch. With a 4 inch tube, I gain 2 3/4" compared to the SBA3 carbine length tube (6-3/4). That's over 100 fps gained. Extremely significant.
I'm trying to find reviews of the 4" deadfoot system before I buy. I too don't want an unreliable pistol.
