Great price on a PCC necessity
I am a gunsmith and I cannot tell you how many customers bring 9mm or 45acp uppers that “don’t work” that just need a heavy buffer and ar10 buffer spring.
Would you recommend this?
Yes, I would recommend to a friend
Good pistol buffer, good spring
Works well, no issues. Spring doesn't twang too, a nice bonus

Works good.
My first 9mm conversion build using the foxtrot mike 16 upper. Bought this buffer a308 carrbine spring and the buffer tube spacer since I am using a rifle stock. These were the parts recommended by FM. This buffer has some weight to it and functrion seems fine. No problems noted after first range trip. Also using the Stern magazine adapter with the lower and it works well though not recommeded by FM. Bought it before reading the manual. I believe you can read the FM manual on their website. Useful info.
This buffer is great.
My AR would not cycle. The buffer I had was to heavy . I installed this Foxtrot Mike and bingo it started working great.
Works as advertised
I added this buffer and the recommended 308 carbine spring to a regular PSA lower I had. Using the Foxtrot Mike 16" upper I purchased here, the combination of the 2 work perfectly. I reload, and using the above set-up, along with EndoMags, the gun has ran flawlessly using even flat nosed light powered loads.
The PERFECT 9mm Buffer !
You can't go wrong with this Foxtrot Mike buffer. I am using this with a FM lower and upper and it works perfect!
Got rid of the quarters in the tube
Started out with $1.75 in quarters in the back of the buffer tube running a carbine buffer spring in my PSA 9mm Glock lower. This worked ok, but recoil was pretty strong. Purchased this FM buffer and a 308 buffer spring. Got rid of the quarters and installed this buffer and 308 spring. Recoil subsided a bit and performance has been flawless. I have since purchased more for my other 9mm lowers.
Perfect 9mm buffer
Finish is great and works with all ammo. I have yet to have any issues. Very heavy and we'll made. Works great with a carbine 308 spring. And their customer service is icing on the cake.
its heavy
Its heavy enough that I removed the added weight of the Brownells 9mm bolt carrier group and absolutely no hiccups at all. Cycling was great. Might add the extra weight back to the Brownells bcg when using shell shok cases at +p+ heavy power loads but that will be a lot of range time to determine that. Finnish was great. Polly buffer stop was very secure and the roll pin was/is in much tighter and more secure than a lot of expensive mill spec buffers.don't beleave this will ever present a problem with heavy use. Keep it dry lubed well and it will probly never wear out.
Great Buffer
I did a lot of research on 9mm buffers after seeing so many failures and broken parts on PCC's. I liked what I read about Foxtrot Mike so I bought this buffer and their bolt assembly. I dropped them both in a new PSA upper and lower. Over 600 rounds of FMJ and 50 rounds of hollowpoints through my 8.5 inch pistol carbine without one issue. It has run flawlessly with Glock mags, ETS mags and MagPul's. I've been very impressed with both the buffer and bolt.
