Heavy buffers are good for short barrels. I would use an H buffer or 9mm buffer. I'm more fond of the 9mm buffer though.

I use an MGI Rate Reducing Buffer in my M16 with 7" barrel and it runs 100%. I also have Defender D-Ring on all my SBR uppers..

I run a standard carbine buffer with an O-ring on the extractor spring. 7.5" barrel with a regular gas tube. Eats anything that fits in the mag.

1st question, which stock tube length you planning to use ? I have an A2 stock on mine, and I used a 7oz rifle buffer (dump the guts, and install machined brass rod into buffer body) that I run with my 7.5", 11.5" uppers, along with my 11.5" 9mm upper. If you use CAR tube, the 5.5oz "9mm" buffer might be a good start.. |

I use an Enidine Hydraulic Buffer on my 7.5" Diplomat SBR and it has less recoil than any of my 16" ARs.

Use a good H2 Buffer I have not had problems with them on the short barrels.
