What is the preferred buffer tube for building an AR pistol from a stripped receiver now and why?

Thanks

I have a KAK Industry Tube and really like it, but I had a lot of parts laying around, almost enough to build another one. Needed a buffer tube for it and found this MOD1 PISTOL tube for (I think) $20 shipped, but without foam padding. Looks pretty good and has build in QD attachments...

Started with the Thordsen on a mil spec rifle buffer tube. Check rest didn't hold well when I shot 458 socom.

Went with the KAK tube, blade and set screw. Love the set up.
