Hk91 Heavy Buffer - Page 1

Posted: 7/31/2018 7:38:36 PM EDT

Does any one have experience with the German made heavy buffer for the hk91 (or the after market buffer for that matter)

I would like to ease up on the bolt velocity. if it works as well as the H2 buffer for the AR15 it would be worth it but not exactly the same.

I have a brand new one but I don't have the larger back plate and I don't want to modify the one I have. That is one thing to consider.
This is the German 2-stage heavy buffer, not the "enhanced" versions available.

I bought my HK91 almost 30 years ago. I didn't know it at the time, but it came with the factory 2 stage heavy buffer. It is a really nice shooting rifle with very manageable recoil.For years I always wondered why people complained about the HK91 recoil.

Right now with older age and a worn out body I am going to put one of the padded HK21 butt pads on it to soften it further.

Love my heavy buffer, it's a must in the HK-91 or G3 type firearm. I got mine from HK Parts. I think I went with the American made version that was like $60 or something though. The German ones were more expensive. Some may need to be used in certain buttstocks. Or you may have to modify your current stock.

These are what I put in my PTR-32P and PTR-K3P SBRs. They work good. I have emailed HKParts about if/when they will get more, but after over a year, and still no "In Stock" notifications.

#9 or 17 locking pieces will slow the carrier down too.

I've used the heavy two stage in my MM11 and it reduces recoil a good bit. Paired with the locking piece change, recoil was significantly reduced

Thanks
