No, all buffer tubes are not the same. Although all AR-15 rifles use the same buffer tube, 10.125” long and 1.115” in diameter, these won’t always work on all calibers, AR pistols, PCCs, etc. Once you know what you want to do with your build, you may need to get a carbine buffer tube kit or pistol buffer tube kit to ensure proper fit and performance.
As far as quality and durability, Mil-Spec buffer tubes are the way to go and are made from 7075 T6 alloys. Commerical buffer tubes are usually less expensive and use 6061 T6 billet aluminum.
