Anyone running these in their 9mm AR's??? C4 |
Well I was thinking about stocking them, but first want to use one in my 9mm AR. It is my understanding that they are made for full auto weapons. C4 www.gandrtactical.com |
I'm not running them in a 9mm upper but I run them with all my 5.56 uppers <semi auto> and love them... And it would be great to have a reliable source like G&R Tactical having them in stock...  |
You run them in your semi-auto AR (shooting 5.56)? Hmmm interesting. I can get them all day long and will make call on Monday and order some then.... C4 |
Mine are all 5.6 ounces. I used to get them from Fulton Armory but they don't stock them any longer... |

BUFFER WEIGHTS - I believe this is what is offered as Colt Buffers Rifle - 5.15oz, made of aluminum CAR - 2.9oz, made of aluminum H - 3.77oz H2 - 4.7oz H3 – 5.6oz 9mm - 5.47oz, made of steel 9mm A - 6.3oz CAR style buffer 9mm B - 7.1oz CAR style buffer 9mm X - 7.9oz CAR style buffer |
Do you think you'll have any luck finding a source for the tungsten/H3 weight buffers? Fulton Armory had them for $35 but no longer carries them. I won't do any more business with SAWsales since the owner's tirades here on ARFcom... $75 each from SAW seems a bit extreme for an H3 anyway...  |
The H2's are on the way and I will check on the H3's. C4 |
Regarding the 9mm buffers: Does anyone know what the rule of thumb is for buffer weight regarding barrel length or ammo? I'm going to be running a semi auto 7.5" bbl shooting 115 to 147 gr and am pondering which buffer to use. |

For semi auto use, weight is not really an issue. Weight is mostly for rate of fire control when runniing full-auto.. If rifle tube-stock, run a rifle buffer. If "CAR" tube-stock, run a CAR buffer that is similar weight to rifle buffer, more weight wont hurt it. I run a 9mm with suppresor, with A2 stock and modified rifle buffer that weighs 7.0oz.... only reason I did this was to try and hold bolt to try to cut down the backdraft of the suppressor out the port. |
I can get you any weight buffers you want. They just won't be marked H3. Let me know... C4 |
More weight can be detrimental if you have weak ammo.... |
It will slow down the recoil impulse. I haven't tested my new setup in the 458 SOCOM, but I am running an H-Buffer with a Carrier Weight System and Tungsten rod. I'm using the standard carbine spring but may switch to the Wolff +10% if the standard one is too light. |
