[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Recoil buffer experience anyone?

Posted: 3/25/2006 6:27:40 PM EDT

Do these things work? Anyone got experience? Do they really reduce felt recoil or muzzle flip? The Buffer Technologies ones are inexpensive and seem to be popular, and Sprinco and Fire Dragon brands are steep. I've got a Glock 22, Sig P220, and SW99, and I'm interested in the idea, but . . . .

Thanks for the help.

I put the Buffer Tech rods on my SIG 220 and 226. I like it. It might be a placebo effect, but I think it tones down the recoil slighty. I also makes the slide feel tighter than with the factory rod. Just my $ .02

Thanks. That's helpful. I may give that a try for $25. Any experience with the rubber buffer recoils that stop the slide from contacting the frame?

You can definitely tell it's there when you rack your slide. It does the job it's designed to do. It reduces the stress placed on those alloy frames from high powered rounds.
