Should I use an H, H2, H3, or 9mm buffer w/ a 10.5" Noveske barrel and AAC M4-1000 suppressor? Any info would be appreciated.

Why not just start with a standard buffer and see how it runs?
The heavier buffers are really tools to slow down machine guns and to increase the unlocking time on longer barreled uppers.
With the 10.5", you already have a very short dwell time so you probably don't want to increase buffer weight unless you need to do it to help with timing the blowback from the can.

Probably not as well as you can.
My understanding is that by keeping the cartridge case in the chamber LONGER and delaying the ejection of the spent case, that you notice a reduction of gas to the face.

This was specific to the LMT enhanced carrier, but perhaps heavier buffers help too?

Being in CA, I don't get to play with such toys so please elaborate on what you know.

I'm not Steve.  Just a friend and customer who uses his logo to give him a little advertising.  So it was actually a serious question looking for an answer.  Thanks for the reply.
