I have to give the M1S upper two thumbs up.
I shortened the spring because I couldn't get the buffer's cushion tip off. I removed its roll pin but could not pull the tip off to get to the weights. I could twist it with a pair of pliers but not pull it out. Any tips?

I used a small screw driver and slipped it in between the tip and buffer body. It's on there very tight but it does come off.
