Since the introduction of the AR-15 in the 1950s, round wire springs have served as the standard. However, our Enhanced Flat Wire Spring surpasses traditional options like music wire, stainless steel, and chrome silicon in several aspects. Unlike round wire springs, our Flat Wire Spring applies greater pressure on the bolt when in battery, slightly increasing bolt lock time and subsequently lowering chamber pressures prior to extraction. Moreover, it aids in smoothly returning the bolt to the battery under adverse conditions and fouling, facilitates the extraction of stubborn rounds from magazines, and may even contribute to reducing the bolt.

The benefits of a flat buffer spring are numerous. Firstly, its design allows for more consistent and even pressure distribution compared to traditional round buffer springs. This can result in smoother cycling of the firearm, reducing felt recoil and muzzle rise. Additionally, flat buffer springs tend to be more durable and resistant to deformation over time, ensuring reliable performance even after prolonged use. Furthermore, their construction often allows for easier installation and maintenance. Overall, the flat buffer spring offers enhanced reliability, durability, and shooting comfort compared to its round counterparts.

  1. Securing the Receiver Extension: The castle nut is used to secure the receiver extension (buffer tube) to the receiver of the rifle. It is threaded onto the end of the buffer tube and tightened against the receiver to ensure a secure connection.
  2. Preventing Rotation: Once properly tightened, the castle nut prevents the receiver extension from rotating or coming loose during the firing or handling of the rifle. This is crucial for maintaining the alignment of the buffer tube and the stock, ensuring proper function and stability.
  3. Retention of Other Components: In some designs, the castle nut may also serve to retain other components of the buffer tube assembly, such as the end plate or receiver end plate sling adapter.
  4. Compatibility: The castle nut is designed to work specifically with the receiver extension and other components of the rifle’s buffer tube assembly. It is manufactured to precise specifications to ensure proper fit and function.
  5. Durability: Like other components of the rifle, the castle nut is made from durable steel, ensuring strength and reliability under the stresses of firing and regular use.
