| I just got my new bravo 16" middy the other day, and am about to order the parts to build my first lower. What buffer should i run in it? I'm still pretty new to ARs and know nothing about buffers except their purpose, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated |

+1 H carbine buffer
I'm running a H buffer on my midlength 16" carbine and it works well with several of my surplus military ammo. A good quality AR should work with all carbine buffers, it's up to you to try it with your particular ammo and decide which buffer weight works best to your preference. |
