I just bought a RR complete lower and thought the stock was an entry (short) A2 which would've taken a carbine buffer. Well, after I got it home, I realized it wasn't a short A2 but a regular A2 (I swore it felt shorter when I looked at it in the store) and has a rifle length buffer and spring. I know carbine's have different weight buffers (reg, H, H2) but my question is: do rifle buffers have different weights as well? Been searching for info and can't find anything on rifle buffers (only carbine info out there).
Thanks. |

Quoted:
No rifle length has only one buffer, when the A2 longer stock came out to replace the shorter A1 stock they added a spacer to make up the difference. http://i656.photobucket.com/albums/uu290/rgerh913/Posted/buffer-construction-1.jpg" /> Thanks for the reply and info! |

That spacer (5/8") does not affect the buffer. It goes on the outside end of the tube to accommodate the longer A2 stock. A1/A2 use the same rifle buffer. |
