Sons of Guns seems to think they are awesome and that AR's will not run reliable without one.
I use standard buffers just with different weights and do not buy into all the hype. |

Ya they made themselves look real stupid there! I know the right buffer must really help just never tried differant buffers in my gun and didnt know anything about the Hydraulic ones. I think I am gonna try a heavy just to see what it does and how big a differance it makes.

I had a maintenance supervisor argue with me that the buffer had to be hydraulic because they built it to require one. |

My friend was watching that and I was laughing the whole time saying the rifle was a POS and should have worked better with the standard buffer. Glad someone finally agrees my friend who is a know it all but knows nothing about the workings of a firearm was arguing the same point. I also laughed that they would put that in a rifle that would be a service rifle. |

Pointless product. I bought into the hype when I was new to ARs, my gun wouldn't hold the bolt open after the last round, put in a heavy buffer, no more issue
Useless item...waste of money. |

I don't know about different buffers but I thought they said it was needed for full auto in their gun? was it really?

Yeah what the hell was the deal with the hydraulic buffer? I didn't understand why it wouldn't work on FA with a Carbine buffer

From what I have read, the hydraulic buffer is the lightest way to eliminate bolt bounce in full auto fire. Without a buffer like that, or a real heavy one, bolt bounce will prevent the gun from being reliable in full auto mode. In semi-auto mode, it is no better at all (maybe even worse) than a normal buffer.
