TANDEMKROSS Shock Block Bolt Buffer for Ruger PC Carbine
Needs a major design overhaul. The aluminum piece (red) is only as big as you see it. The rest of it is just two pins that only go 1mm into the aluminum and that's what holds the rubber shock absorbing piece against the red aluminum block (that's a 4 piece buffer design!). Imagine the force the pins...

So like the title says, it definitely works! I tend to tinker with my firearms, and try little upgrades, especially for the Ruger Charger. I noticed a difference right away, super easy to change out. I recommend highly
Pros:
None
Cons:
None especially at price point
Would recommend: Yes

Quality product especially when paired with a few of Tandemkross's other upgrade items. I did have a problem where the retainer nut would fall out when putting the recoil spring and buffer back in the slide. Rotating the retainer nut the opposite way seemed to do the trick. Gun shoots great, and im not scared to shoot really hot ammo in it now.
Pros:
Quality Price Appearance Design
Cons:
slightly tricky install
Best Used for:
+p Ammunition
Would recommend: Yes

This is the best quality, manufactured buffer available. Light years ahead of the OEM, and no comparison to the other aftermarket (the other makes great things but) …Tandemkross wins here! It’s solid! Purchased many to have on hand. Tried and true. Don’t second guess this purchase! There is no other choice. You can order a different company version for comparison; and you’ll see what I’m talking about. This is what you’re looking for in a shock block bolt buffer.
Pros:
Quality
solid
Best in class
Design & Build
Cons:
Zero
Best Used for:
Pc carbine

Tandemkross has manufactured a solid, well constructed bolt buffer that exceeded my expectations. Having compared this to similar competitor’s products, Tandemkross takes the prize. Worth the minimal cost of the investment for overall improvement.
