Rifle Buffer & Recoil Springs
Recoil is one of the indispensable aspects of a firearm that has a whole group of parts responsible for handling it. Buffer springs and recoil springs are the main representatives of this group. A buffer spring is a crucial part designed to absorb recoil and return the bolt carrier group to the ready position after firing. These springs are often made of high-strength steel and are designed to withstand repeated cycles of compression and expansion. The AR15 buffer springs play a pivotal role in managing the energy of the recoil, reducing wear on the rifle, and preventing any damage to the bolt carrier. The recoil spring is another term used for the same part. Recoil springs provide rifles with the necessary tension to operate smoothly and reliably. The recoil spring absorbs the shock from the rifle's discharge and helps reset the firearm for the next round.
Whether you're looking for AR buffer springs or AK recoil springs, Gritr Sports has got you covered. We work together with such brands as Armaspec, Anderson Manufacturing, CMMG and others to bring you the best products the market has to offer.
FAQs
What is the function of a buffer spring in a rifle?
The buffer spring plays a crucial role in absorbing recoil and returning the bolt carrier group to the ready position after firing. It helps manage the energy of the recoil, reducing wear on the rifle and preventing any damage to the bolt carrier.
How often should I replace my AR 15 buffer spring?
The lifespan of an AR 15 buffer spring can vary depending on the usage and quality of the spring. However, it's generally recommended to replace your buffer spring every 5,000 to 10,000 rounds to ensure optimal performance.
Can I use any buffer spring or recoil spring with my rifle?
