The VLTOR A5 H3 Buffer is a heavy-duty buffer designed for the VLTOR A5 buffer system (and compatible with standard AR-15 platforms using an A5 receiver extension). Weighing 6.08 oz, this H3-weighted buffer helps fine-tune the recoil system for smoother operation, reduced felt recoil, and improved reliability — especially when running suppressed rifles or builds with different gas systems.
It is machined from steel with a durable black finish and is a direct drop-in replacement for standard buffers in A5-length tubes.
Key Specifications:
- Weight: 6.08 oz (H3 configuration)
- Material: Steel construction
- Finish: Black
- Compatibility: VLTOR A5 buffer system and standard AR-15 platforms with A5 receiver extension
- Function: Provides heavier mass for better cycling, reduced recoil, and tunable reliability
Why Choose the VLTOR A5 H3 Buffer?
- Optimized Recoil Control — The heavier 6.08 oz weight helps tame recoil and improves cycling consistency on suppressed or over-gassed builds.
- A5 System Compatibility — Specifically engineered for the VLTOR A5 buffer tube system, which offers more reliable performance than standard carbine buffers.
- Durable Construction — Solid steel build ensures long-term reliability under high round counts.
- Easy Drop-In Upgrade — Simple replacement that can significantly improve the feel and function of your AR-15.
- VLTOR Quality — Backed by VLTOR’s reputation for precision-engineered AR components.
This buffer is an excellent choice for shooters running suppressed rifles, precision builds, or anyone looking to fine-tune their AR-15’s recoil system for smoother, more reliable operation.
