Buffer, receiver extension tube (aka buffer tube), buffer spring, stock body.
Why the H3 buffer? Will this be a SBR or something? |

Did you order a stock kit or are you getting the parts separately for the stock? Otherwise you'll need a receiver extension nut (Castle Nut), receiver end plate. Either way you need a collapsible stock wrench(CAR wrench).

unless i misinterpreted things, the bigger the buffer the less recoil, right? otherwise i can save 30-50 by getting a H or H2

Not necessarily. Buffers should be chosen based on barrel length, gas system length, gas port size, etc etc. I wouldn't recommend an H3 buffer for a brand new 16" upper. Try a standard or H buffer. And don't worry, no 5.56 weapon has too much recoil

i remember from when i was active duty, 5.56 is barely over 9mm in recoil, but I figured I'd be safe for later if i got like a 7.62 upper or that 5.7 upper /drool, is a standard H buffer enough for those as well? or am I better with 2 different buffers for when i swap uppers?

A 7.62x51 upper won't fit on a standard AR-15 lower.
As for the 5.7 upper, I'm not too familiar with its operation, but I would expect it to have practically no recoil. |

of course you mean for those varmints and woodland critters i'm hunting.....
or one of the best movie quotes: John: Why can't we hunt something cool like a hawk or an eagle, something with some talons? Jeremy: That'd be awesome. We could get something like big game. Even like gorilla or rhinoceros or fucking human being! That'll get you jacked up. |

Quoted:
just making sure I'm not missing anything from my AR before I build it: Sabre Stripped Lower (purchased) CMT LPK (ordered) mil spec stock kit with H buffer (maybe H2) Upper (bcm, not yet ordered) barrel (16" bcm not yet ordered) BGC Gas rod charging handle hand guards mags and AMMO!!!!!! Gas rod? Do you mean gas tube. You'll need a gas tube, unless you want a gas-piston system  . Gas tubes come in pistol, carbine, mid-length, and rifle length. So it depends on what you want to build. Also, If you do not get a barrel with a FSB, etc.., you'll also need a gas block too.
Definitely, take a look at the assembly guides here in the forums and posted on the web they'll help a lot. |
