Description
VLTOR A5H2 Buffer - 5.3oz
Fine-tune your AR-platform firearm for optimal cycling, recoil reduction, and reliability with the VLTOR Weapon Systems A5H2 Buffer. Originally developed at the explicit request of the United States Marine Corps, the VLTOR A5 Buffer System is widely regarded as one of the most effective mechanical upgrades available for the AR platform. Designed to increase reliability, mitigate felt recoil, and enhance overall system durability, this A5H2 buffer provides the exact weighting required to smooth out gas impulses and tune hard-use duty carbines and suppressed gas guns.
Precision-machined from high-strength 7075-T6 aluminum and protected by a durable Type III Clear Hardcoat Anodized finish, the A5H2 buffer weighs in at a precise 5.33 ounces. It houses an internal configuration of two steel weights and two tungsten weights utilizing a cascading deadblow design that prevents bolt bounce during rapid or full-automatic cycling. Note: The VLTOR A5 buffer is specifically designed to function within the lengthened VLTOR A5 receiver extension tube system and is not compatible with standard carbine buffer tubes.
Features
USMC-Developed A5 Platform Architecture:
Engineered for the military-grade VLTOR A5 system to lengthen gas timing, smooth out dwell time, and significantly increase firearm reliability across varying ammunition loads.
Cascading Deadblow Internal Design:
Utilizes a specialized internal weight mechanism that eliminates bolt bounce upon lockup, ensuring positive chambering and smoother cycling in both semi-automatic and rapid-fire setups.
Heavy Duty 7075-T6 Aluminum Construction:
Forged from aerospace-grade 7075-T6 aluminum for superior tensile strength and wear resistance under high buffer spring pressures.
Type III Clear Hardcoat Anodized Finish:
Provides an ultra-tough, corrosion-resistant outer coating that minimizes internal tube friction and protects against carbon buildup.
Ideal 5.33 oz. A5H2 Weighting:
Features a combination of 2 steel and 2 tungsten internal weights totaling 5.33 oz., making it the go-to buffer weight for tuning overgassed or suppressed AR platforms.
