WHERE TO GET THE BUFFER WEIGHT PADS

AR/M4 AR Technical Discussion
1

Hi all:
I need to pick up a few of those rubber pads that go in between the buffer wights to cushion them when they’re slammed back & forth in the buffer tube.
I had bought a used AR some time ago and now notice that it’s missing a couple.
Also, what are they called. I’ve gone on a few sites and can’t find any. I think I may be using the wrong words/description for them.

Thanks for the replies.

KAK has individual parts.

They call it a buffer weight spacer.

Also, what problem needs to be fixed? Most buffers have extra space and make noise when shaken.

They are supposed to slide back and forth inside the buffer. I have something like ten extra buffers and they all slide and some make more noise than others.

You could probably just make some out of gasket rubber or something similar.

Or if you have an old/extra buffer laying around you could take it apart and use the ones from it. If not ordering them from KAK as mentioned is your best bet.

Good luck, NYH1.
