H3 Rifle Extra Long Recoil Buffer - 5.90" Length - 5.2oz - AR-15 - Gold
$14.99
Purpose: The heaviest standard carbine buffer for 5.56/.223, it significantly reduces recoil and is best for over gassed rifles or larger calibers, but it can cause cycling issues if it prevents the BCG from fully retracting. You would use an extra-long rifle-length buffer (often referred to as an XH or extended heavy buffer) in an AR-15 AR-style rifle to further reduce recoil, stabilize cycling, and handle extreme conditions such as suppressed fire, over gassed systems, or high-pressure loads. This heavier buffer slows down the bolt carrier group (BCG) even more than a standard rifle buffer, minimizing felt recoil, bolt bounce, and wear on components, making it ideal for precision shooting, suppressed setups, or rifles with significantly increased backpressure. However, it requires careful tuning of the gas system and buffer spring to avoid short-stroking (incomplete cycling), and it’s only necessary in specific high-recoil or custom configurations where standard rifle or carbine buffers are insufficient.
