Questions & Answers
I have a home built AR9 with a 7.5" barrel with adjustable gas block. I sometimes run a suppressor. Would you recommend the 8.3 or 6.5oz? and why?

AR9s are direct blowback and don’t use a gas system so I think you may be confused on the adjustable gas block.

The description says that it works for mil-spec AR-15/AR-9. Does this in fact work with AR-15 5.56?

No, this is not compatible with a standard AR-15 direct impingement system. It will not cycle.

Totally worth it by Mike, Verified Owner, June 7, 2026
Many years ago I built a 9mm AR and thought it was going to be so cool. I always hated the heavy slow recoil and with the can, there was so much blow back, gas in my face. I added weight to the buffer system to reduce the gas but it didn't do anythi...

It actually works by Michael Edelson, Verified Owner, August 29, 2025
I regretted buying the Daniel Defense PCC at first. It's an excellent carbine, but it is just direct blowback. The hydraulic buffer softened recoil considerably but didn't do anything for muzzle rise. When I saw this roller delay buffer, I thought, "...

Perfect fit for the SD HBPDW by BordertownUSA, Verified Owner, May 3, 2026
I can’t yet comment on its function, but it seems well made. It was a perfect fit in the HBPDW to replace the busted up buffer. I did want to comment on the negative comments stating that this makes the weapon too hard to charge. Unless there are qu...

Excellent recoil reduction. by ClintonRH, Verified Owner, December 30, 2023
I've only shot one 2gun match and one range day with this since I installed it. Installation of the buffer was easy with the only difficulty being driving out the roll pin in my bolt to remove the weight. For testing I ran 112 rounds of a mix of 124g...

Absolutely Worth It! by John C, September 16, 2024
Some reviews here and on YouTube state that they didn't feel much reduction in recoil. That can happen if you don't shoot often as recoil memory can be really fuzzy. For myself, I went through 2 32 round mags in my 10.5" Barrel Colt 9mm SMG then I re...
