AR Buffer Tube Explained

You explained this perfectly! As Einstein said, if you can’t explain it to a 6 year old, then you don’t truly understand it yourself. Or something along those lines.

Be ready, it's coming :))

I don’t take advice from bros who don’t have there castle nut staked

Why dont piston ars need buffers

Buffer tubes are ALUMINUM not steel. Buy milspec and ONLY 7075-T6 buffer tubes. Not commercial spec and NOT 6061

Literally the most important point of the BUFFER is that it greatly mitigates recoil by buffering the inertia and slowing it down. Hence the names Buffer, and buffer tube.

my fightlite SCR doesnt have one 😊 it also means the forward assist cant be used 😢

They are also not all the same when it comes to carbines. There are commercial and military spec tubes. The mil spec is smaller in diameter and made of an extrusion. Typically it's a little stronger. There are specialized carbine tubes as well. The Vltor A5 recoil system for example is a bit longer and uses the proprietary A5 buffer and spring. If you have a stock thay wobbles, chances are it's a commercial stock on a milspec tube. If the stock doesn't fit or is so tight it barely slides, you have a milspec stock and commercial tube. Fortunately this is becoming more rare. However the commercial parts still do exist.

You can change your recoil and cycle speed with different weight buffers and springs,also adjustable gas block

So why do people change out these parts? What improvements can be made if you customize this section and what customizations are even there for this? This seems like it would be one of those things that have a lot of wiggle room.

Buffer tubes are great because they can greatly reduce recoil. That was their original purpose, the reason AR15s are not bufferless is because the deisgn originated from the AR10. Stoner made the AR10 have a buffer system so the action would go straight back into your shoulder which would reduce recoil. The AR15 is just a scaled down version of this and the buffer tube has remained.

Does DD make their buffer tube out of steel?

My 308 bruises my shoulder lol help me

I have built several ar's, you explained things extremely well sir 😂

I know what's it but still watching👀😂😅

Hollow piece of steel? You mean Aluminum?

does the coils affect the recoil? and by how much?

I’m looking into building an A.R. 15, I know the lower I want, and I was wondering if any A.R. 15 parts would work with that lower, such as a trigger, buffer tube, upper, and anything else?

You got to be kidding me This is what your shop has come down to

I put a JP silencer in mine. Fantastic product.

Exactly when I try to straight out and then my gun is not really loading Bullet is good. Or when you press them back and not good either.

I thought Gun Fights from WLS was srarting

The "tube" is an aluminum forging of 6061-t6, not a "hollow piece of steel"

90% of people “modifying” their buffer/recoil system have no clue what they’re doing or why.

Cucking you out of a folding stock is it's purpose

Any thoughts on high standard pistols?

its pretty much your recoil spring on s handgun

YT dont wamt us learning. Halfway though watching YT now does not have any sound and I had to force close and reopen the app. 😂

Please explain the "super safety". Both function, and legality. Please

I Love That Rifle! Saint Victor 🔥
