AERO PRECISION – AR-15 CARBINE BUFFER KITS

Sale Price: $38.99

With the popularity of short, pistol-length, AR-style firearms on the market, more of today’s AR owners are seeing a phenomenon that occurs on semi-automatic firearms with short gas systems: overgassing. The result of overgassing is increased wear on internal components, as well as increased felt recoil. To address these issues, Aero Precision launched its AR-15 Carbine Buffer Kit.

Buffer tubes can get bent, be cracked and buffer springs can be accidentally bent or wear out. Additionally, it’s always nice to have a spare buffer around. Brownells has several different combination buffer kits on sale so be sure to check them out to see which one you think will fit your needs most.
