Good option for bumping weight of HBpdw

Bought this to bump the weight up of the proprietary buffer that comes with the HBpdw brace. Stock the HBpdw buffer is carbine weight with roughly 1.5 buffer weights, so this replaces the full size weight in the buffer to get it to an H.

Perfect

I have an AR with a rifle length gas system. Failure to feed was a problem. I reduced the stock 3oz buffer by 1/2oz and all is well.

AR-15 Heavy Adjustable Buffer by ODIN

My 11.5" AR Pistol was recoiling kind of hard. I put this in with a couple of steel and one tungsten weight and the recoil was MUCH more tolerable. Can I just say that again? MUCH better than the standard carbine buffer that came with the pistol. I wish it came with a bit more instructions but I figured it out and I would buy this again in a second.

Good Value

This was one of the best prices i'd seen for these. the size is almost the same as for a 'stock' AR buffer weight. if you're trying to tune your AR match rifle for perfect ejection, this can certainly help. the only problem, there is i've seen the buffer polymer bumper break off a few times while trying to remove it for a weight swap. so keep one of those on hand, just in case.

Great part

Easy to install, lots of adjustability, well built good quality. Works with any round . Will purchase more for all my ars

Neat

My AR was extracting way too fast, now I can calibrate it to my desire, I just need time. The product is great I just wish came with 3 tugsten weights all together.
