    Buffer Technologies Buffer for an SKS?

    Does it actually help prevent any wear and tear? Thx for any input.

    Buffer introduces a consumable into the works that isn't needed. IMO.

    Installing new springs will be a better investment to keep things running right.

    *when the bumper degrades it can cause malfs because it comes apart. Bad JuJu.

          When people mention wear on a SKS, it's almost always the wood or the blueing, both issues being more cosmetic than functional. They're not so cheap now, but historically the guns and ammo have been very inexpensive. So it's conceivably possible that someone has put so many rounds through it that they were able to wear out a mechanical component. But that's not something I've ever heard of.

          Wear and tear is not an issue. I think it can even withstand a drop onto carpet.

            There is zero evidence that a "recoil buffer" does anything but enrich the designer of the useless product.

              wear and tear? how many rounds are you trying to shoot?

              if you have enough money to shoot a sks enough to break it, you wouldnt care about such a cheap gun.

                I'd only use one as an unlockable in Rising Storm: Vietnam.

There's no possible way that CGN members marching alongside the Pink Pistols in the SF Pride Parade can do anything to dispel the stereotype that gun owners are conservative bigots clinging to their guns and bibles. Not a single person in the crowd is rational or reachable because the parade's for gay folks and it's in SF.

                  i havent seen buffer tech buffers for years i remember when they came out they were that transyellow urithane like color then later they became solid grey color

                  the only 2 buffers i thought were useful was the 1911 ones and the one for ak47 it actually would make a century/egypt ak work
