Right now it has a standard carbine spring and Spikes Tactical ST-T2 buffer
I use the Tubb's flat spring and it works great. I think it is smoother and you can use the same spring in the carbine or rifle buffer tube. Currently, I am running it in a rifle tube and also the the carrier weight system. I use the heaviest setup. I did this because I wanted to slow down the action and minize bullet jump in the case. Cycles just fine with factory ammo. Whatever system you use, try to stay around the 5 oz weight for the buffer -- that is what is in the rifle.

Siringo, thank you for the feedback. Quick question about your setup--did you use the AR-10 spring or the AR-15 version from Tubb's? Also, if I installed the Tubb's flat spring and a heavy buffer, what advantage would the carrier weight system offer over the heavy buffer & spring alone? FWIW, I will be shooting factory loads almost exclusively.
On a separate note, I did install the Timney drop in trigger--very nice!
