Reviews & Ratings for Dark Storm Industries DS-15 H2 Carbine Length Buffer — 28 reviews — Page 1

Tryin to get my .300 Blackout tuned to perfection, so it'll run perfectly when suppressed and with the FRT trigger. This buffer weight was recommended. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Thanks OP!

Will not work with your FRT tuning, but will help reduce recoil in your piston upper.

Works like a charm. Slowed down bolt jumping making light strike

As expected, nice machine work, fits perfectly feels sturdy

As always Optics’s Planet had exactly what I was looking for. The SA AGB is the ticket for dialing in my AR. Super 42 is superlative. F2 as well.

Dark Storm Indudtries H2 carbine length buffer weight was just the right weight for running my Radical Arms 16” carbine with a Hoffman Super Safety FRT. Ran exceptionally well. It is a dead blow weight with moving internal weights vs a solid weight which is required when using an FRT. good luck, I’m very pleased. I will say that shipping time was not super fast, but it was acceptable.

Part came in, well made and at a decent price. I put it into a 10.5 build and it made shooting feel very smooth. Didn't weigh it to know exact weight but it's def heftier than my mil-spec buffers. Buy with confidence.

I needed a heavier buffer for my Super Safety build, and decided on this one. The price was good, and it is exactly what I needed!

I purchased this buffer thinking I would receive the standard H2 buffer which typically has two tungsten weights and one steel weight. With this buffer the actual carrier is made out of steel to increase the weight and then it has three standard steel weights inside of it. After installing this buffer I started experiencing bolt bounce and light primer strikes when trying to use a forced reset trigger. The problem immediately went away when I swapped back to my conventional H2 buffer. For semi-automatic it function just fine and had a very similar ejection pattern to an H2 buffer. If you're in the market please spend the extra $5 and get an actual H2 buffer that comes with the tungsten weights a posted this one where corners were cut to save a little money and not use the right materials. Avoid this entirely if your goal for purchasing a heavier buffer includes reducing both bounce as this one functions even worse than the standard buffer when it comes to that.

Started getting wear on the face from the spring after less than 100 rounds, so probably softer aluminum - not mil spec. They put oil inside because they use poor quality steel weights, which sticks the rubber spaces to the weights and makes it act like one big steel weight and so your deadblow dies. Buy once, cry once. Stay away from this buffer.
