Questions & Answers
What are dimensions (diameter and length)? Can I put a standard buffer weight into the Super 42 buffer? I know buffer is different, but weights too?

Your Answer:
I have just verified today that the ONLY difference between Geissele super 42 weights and mil-spec weights is that Geissele bevels the sharp edges resulting in .20 grams loss of weight. Standard weights fit inside the buffer just fine. I’m running one tungsten that came with it. Ordered this weight. And also put in one standard usgi tungsten weight from del ton. Other than the beveled edges the weights inside the super 42 buffer are within dimension spec of usgi buffer weights.

What is the weight of one? Expert Answer

Each weight raises the H level by one. The base Super 42 buffer is already H1, so adding one weight will make it an H2 buffer, and adding two weights will make it an H3 buffer.

buffer weight review by anthony, January 30, 2017
it works as advertised and creates an H2 buffer for AR rifles that utilize the new Geissele 42 AR buffer. I should note that it will only work with the super 42 buffer do to its smaller diameter and will not work in a standard buffer setup.

Fantastic results by Blake, March 23, 2021
Awesome in my 10.5 5.56 pistol using the Geissle braided buffer spring and an SBA3. Huge reduction in recoil adding the 2 weights to go from H1 to H3. No issues with reliability at all. Perfect results. Recoils less than a 9mm MpX no joke.

Geissele as usual by Dan, April 20, 2018
What else would you expect from the best but the best. Super 42 buffer system is incredible on my DD MK18. Gun runs smooth as silk now no more annoying spring noise, perfect case ejection.———————————————————————

Works great by Paxton, Verified Owner, September 8, 2020
I upgraded my Geissele Super 42 buffer and spring to a H3 buffer for firing suppressed and it works great. Product came quickly and in good packaging. Instructions included. I would order this weight again.

Geissele Tungsten Weights by AK47, Verified Owner, September 12, 2024
Geissele makes high quality firearms and accessories. They unfortunately tend to be overpriced and proprietary. The Super 42 buffer and buffer springs are a perfect example. Due to inner diameter of buffer spring you can only use a Geissele buffer. T...
