Recoil Buffer

[BadAsMo]

Have any of you tried these M14 recoil buffers?
What do you think?

Does anyone in Canada sell them?

 

[yomomma]

I have never read anything good about them.

Not necesscary, do not waste your money.

Judging by what I've read about them so far, you'd probably do better with a few layers of duct tape at the contact point.

Recoil buffers LOL
Some lures catch fish
Most lures catch fishermman (and their wallets)

X2 on don't waste your money
Your bolt is designed to come fully to the rear.... A recoil buffer will stop the action before the bolt reaches that point. Nothing more than a gimmick that serves no valuable purpose and does not enhance the operation of the M14/M1A.

Marstar sells them, 45ACPKING said it right.

They cause the "failure to feed" condition everytime.

They should called it a " Tactical Kinetic Shock Absorption System ".....and painted it black of course.
Ooops.....I see a relaunch coming. And a huge price increase.
Somebodies probably painting all the unsold ones black right now.

U my friend speak nothing but the truth and I loved shooting your LRB

My Norc weighs around 12lbs and has almost no recoil- I kinda wish they made a device that increased recoil....

I have one of these so called recoil buffers, and a badger Fluted Op rod guide and a new Op rod spring.
my gun works fine with the polytech mags... but will not strip fresh rounds off the followers of a pair of new thermold mags i bought. I wonder if that's my issue. Sure wish I could find a 10 rounder pinned to 5...

A few years back my Norinco after firing thousands of rounds, the operating rod spring failed. It was suddenly shorter and no it didn`t break it just gave up (metal fatigue) I guess. It was just long enough to reach the lock connecter. The home made recoil buffer that I made was pulverized. I`m guessing operating rod would have bent or broke, maybe other damage as well. So yes it does help. I put Wolf springs in my M305`s since then. And use recoil buffers all the time in my 1911, M305/M14 .
