Q
d, member, from FL, United States, asked on August 04, 2022

I'm setting up a 10.3 super duty ar pistol with attached law tactical folding brace adapter with BCG insert, what size buffer kit do I need?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Hunter, Gear Expert, from OH, United States, on August 15, 2022

The Geissele Premium AR-15/M4 Mil-Spec Buffer Tube Assembly w/ Super 42 Spring will work with the Law Tactical Folding adapter. I recommend using the H3 model of the Geissele Premium AR-15/M4 Mil-Spec Buffer Tube Assembly w/ Super 42 Spring for that set up. However, you will need a pistol brace that is compatible with a Mil-Spec buffer tube.
