SKS 2 pc Buffer Set

These simple drop in buffer set will smooth the action in your SKS rifle

Eliminated metal to metal contact

Stops vibration & noise

Reduces wear & improves zero retention on optics

Package includes: 1 x Receiver buffer & 1 x Receiver cover buffer.

Completely Canadian made!

We just got these in stock now, Here.



 
I would say they are softer than the blue ones, these are a 2 piece set, so they will definitely work better! Made right here in Canada.....
 
I've heard using these will some how damage the rifle, anyone wanna elaborate?

Can't see that happening

Looks good, Dave. Are these more "rubbery" than your blue ones?
I think silicone would be just the cat's whisker...

Silicone would be too squishy.

If these are made by who I think they are I'm guessing polyurethane. Mines been good so far.

I've heard stories of sks buffers falling apart over time, and little bits of rubber/polyurethane/whatever getting into the trigger group, leading to all sorts of weird behavior including a trigger that doesn't work and the potential to go full auto.

This doesn't actually damage the rifle long term though, clean up the bits of buffer that are jamming up the trigger group and you're good to go.

Polymer buffers will always eventually fall apart. It is not some magic material. Just like polymer airgun seals, you won't get much use out of an airgun with a 30 year old polymer airgun seal unless you put a new one in there.

The other type of buffer is not usually something you see on commercial guns except maybe on an AR15.

Just to add, who is going to go through the trouble of putting buffers in their SKS and never strip it down to look at them again?

I already have the one that fits into the dust cover. To my mind the one which cushions the bolt carrier would be more efficient. All the dust cover buffer does is provide a spring pocket for the operating spring *ymmv. The H shaped one will wear out quicker and do more to reduce metal to metal contact by my way of thinking.

I had one of the blue ones and it fell apart after barely 200 or 250 rounds and DID jam my rifles action. Maybe that is normal but in my opinion was a waste of money as there was no real advantage to having it except it made the action a little quieter. If it was priced as it should be like 2 bucks for a 15 cent piece of rubber at best I would not mind but honestly I feel ripped off and do not recommend this product.
 
I had the exact same experience with a green one.

My blue one started cracking in the "armpits" of the forward "wing". I then looked closely at its shape and realized I was pushing it too far down. After 100 or so rounds with it sitting "tall in the saddle" up against the bolt return spring, the progression of the cracks has really slowed. I'll see how far I can take this one, then see how a fresh one sitting proud fares.
 
These new ones are built stronger than the old blue ones, thee should be no problems with them. We also give you a 2 piece set now!
