Vltor A5 buffer
I am currently building a 308 with a vltor A5 system. I didn’t realize that I needed a carbine buffer when I purchased this but I spoke with vltor and they gave me some real good advice on my build so I decided to to keep it and start a new build with this. It seems well made and the staff at vltor are super cool. No hands on experience yet.
It's an A5 buffer
If you need one, you already know it; this one is great!
Best Used for:
- Vltor A5 receiver extension
Would recommend: Yes
fast shipping
Great product, slowed down ROF with frt while suppressed. Definitely recommend A5 buffer system with frt over carbine.
Would recommend: Yes
Love the A5 buffers
Using an A5 buffer system in my long distance rifle build. Very low recoil, very easy to get back on target. Started with H2 and now moving to H3 for fine tuning the ejection pattern. Very happy with these.
Would recommend: Yes
Great Buffer
I use this in my 11.5" AR with a Forced Reset Trigger and it works great with a suppressor, it slows down the cycling enough to make it reliable and controllable.
Would recommend: Yes
Better buffer system
The a5 buffer has an internal spring which positions the buffer weights forward in the buffer body. This leads to more consistent functioning in semi-auto rifles.The buffers are also available in heavier weights than the standard carbine buffers.
Would recommend: Yes
Great Upgrade
I purchased a VLTOR A5 Extended Buffer Tube and A5H2 Buffer (with a Geissele Super 42 Rifle Length Braided Spring and Forward Controls Design Extended Castle Nut) for a 14.5" Pin & Weld Barrel with a Mid-length Gas System and it runs FLAWLESSLY. It's some of the most comfortable shooting I've ever done. I highly recommend the A5 System; it feels super solid and has reduced any B"Bolt Bounce". The only problem with the A5 Buffer Tube is that it does not lock many Stocks is the "#1 Position" due to its overall length, I dont really care about that but some OCD's will,
Pros:
- Quality
Cons:
- price
Best Used for:
- soft shooting
Would recommend: Yes

vltor 5.3 oz a5 buffer weight
I am changing my 18" spr build to a b5 collapsible stock from a standard a2 rifle stock and needed a buffer with similar weight to a rifle length weight. Combined with a voltr a5 receiver extension and the stock rifle spring i was able to achieve the transformation without loss of reliability . Optics planet had what i needed at the best price i could find. And their shipping time has improved drastically. They always seem to have what i need at the best price,and the shipping is free .
Would recommend: Yes
Great buffer
I bought this for my 13.7 build, and it has outstanding performance. Cycles very smoothly. No issues or malfunctions so far. You can't go wrong with any VLTOR products, and especially not this buffer.
Would recommend: Yes
11.5 pistol buffer
I’m running this H3 buffer on a 11.5 heavy barrel with plans for a suppressor. The felt recoil mitigation is fantastic combined with a warcomp and I highly recommend the A5 system. Running it on several rifles. Going forward I will just swap out weights rather than buying new complete buffers.
Would recommend: Yes
Standard buffer for A5 System
This is the standard buffer weight for the VLTOR A5 buffer system. It weighs the same as a rifle buffer and works great for most setups. Since this is the standard buffer for the A5 system, it is often harder to find in comparison to other buffer weight options.
Pros:
- well made
- standard
Cons:
- None
Best Used for:
- Most application of the A5 buffer system
Would recommend: Yes
