Upgrade your AR-15 carbine with the PWS Enhanced Steel Body Buffer Carbine H3 5.5 oz, engineered for superior reliability and smoother operation in demanding conditions. As a tactical shooter, you know that every component matters for precision and control. This H3 buffer from Primary Weapons Systems delivers reduced felt recoil and optimized cycling, transforming your rifle into a more controllable platform ideal for range sessions, competitions, or defensive use.
Key Features
- 4140 Steel Construction: Built from high-strength 4140 steel, this buffer withstands extreme heat and pressure without compromising performance, ensuring long-term durability in your AR-15 setup.
- Unique Fluted Design: The innovative fluting minimizes contact points within the buffer tube, allowing debris and fouling to clear easily—even in dirty environments—reducing the risk of malfunctions during extended use.
- FNC LIFE HD Treatment: Advanced Ferro-Nickel Chromium coating provides exceptional corrosion resistance and lubricity, promoting smoother action and extending the buffer’s lifespan under harsh conditions.
- H3 Weight Configuration (5.5 oz): Heavier than standard carbine buffers, the H3 weight slows bolt carrier velocity for gentler cycling, minimizing wear on internal components while maintaining reliable feeding and ejection.

Why Choose the PWS Enhanced H3 Buffer?
Standard buffers often lead to excessive recoil impulse and faster component wear, especially in overgassed or suppressed AR-15s. The PWS H3 addresses these pain points by providing a heavier mass that absorbs energy more effectively, resulting in less muzzle rise, faster follow-up shots, and a softer shooting experience. Whether you’re running hotter ammunition or a suppressor, this buffer enhances reliability without sacrificing speed. It’s a smart upgrade for shooters frustrated with harsh cycling or inconsistent performance, delivering consistent results shot after shot.
Don’t settle for ordinary—equip your rifle with the PWS Enhanced Steel Body Buffer Carbine H3 5.5 oz and experience the difference in recoil management and operational smoothness. Perfect your setup and elevate your shooting precision today.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is an H3 buffer and why use it?
A: An H3 buffer weighs approximately 5.5 oz, heavier than the standard 3 oz carbine buffer. It slows the bolt carrier group for reduced recoil, smoother cycling, and less wear, ideal for suppressed rifles or overgassed systems.
Q: Is this buffer compatible with my AR-15?
A: Yes, it’s designed for standard carbine-length buffer tubes in AR-15 platforms, ensuring drop-in compatibility without modifications.
Q: How does it improve performance in dirty conditions?
A: The fluted design and minimal contact points allow debris to escape easily, promoting reliable function even after prolonged exposure to fouling or environmental contaminants.
