Anderson Manufacturing Carbine Length Buffer

The Anderson Manufacturing Carbine Length Buffer is a precision recoil management component designed specifically for AR-15 carbine-length direct impingement systems. This buffer is essential for reliable bolt carrier group cycling, absorbing and regulating the force transmitted through the receiver extension during each shot. It is ideal for shooters building duty rifles, patrol carbines, or precision platforms.

Manufactured by Anderson Manufacturing, a trusted OEM supplier for military and law enforcement platforms, this buffer provides optimal spring compression rates and dwell time control critical to modern tactical carbine function. The carbine-length profile is specifically designed to work with corresponding carbine-length receiver extension tubes and recoil springs. This creates a balanced system that reduces bolt carrier velocity while maintaining reliability across standard NATO 5.56mm and .223 Remington ammunition.

This component is essential for AR-15 builds using carbine-length gas systems, ensuring consistent performance across varied ammunition loads. The precision-engineered weight and geometry minimize carrier tilt and wear on critical receiver lugs, extending firearm longevity in high-round-count training and operational environments. Shooters who demand reliability and performance will benefit greatly from this buffer.
