As the title reads
The cheapest. These parts have no impact on accuracy or reliability.
Because the best place to ask is a board filled with political minded people.
Wouldn’t want to get advice from a gun board or someone with expert opinions. Better to get anecdotal info from consumers.
This is the type of gun owner that scares me, willing to ask advice from any person with an opinion rather then an expert in the field.
It seems more to me like “Hey I want to talk about guns in public to show I am one of the cool kids!”
I love guns I love Free republic. But some friends should never be in the same room........
Ditto.
Just replaced mine two weeks ago.
Some have a little groove cut out for the buffer retainer pin, some don’t.
Either will do, though.
What nonsense
There are plenty of experienced and expert gun affectionados here on fr and the banglist keywords
You’re the type of freeper that scares ME

Made from billet, strong and accurate, I know this because I designed and programmed them for him. Yes, buffer tubes make a difference, the tolerance of the tube, also the air holes in the back make a huge difference in how they respond and work..
Stock is whatever you feel comfortable with, or find ascetically pleasing, the only thing that does it help you find a comfortable set.
He also makes the correct size for the AR10s as well if anyone is looking for those, which are not as common.
have u played with an H2 or H3 buffer?
Agree with wastoute. Spend your money on good upper components. Basic lower components needn’t cost much.
You do want to make sure your buffer tube and lower receiver are compatible. The Milspec is most common but there are commercial receivers as well, and the two are not compatible for tube/receiver purposes.
Get out of the mindset that there is a “best” anything with firearms. There is more or less suitable for YOU. The best stock for an 18” build for me is a Magpul MOE Rifle Stock. The best stock for someone else might be their cheap piece of garbage carbine “M4” stock from some no-name vendor for $40.
There are several more variables like gashole size, gas system length and ammo type(s) to be used that drive the considerations like buffer weight, spring weight and possibly rifle vs carbine vs VLTOR A5 receiver extension selection.
There is no “best”.
Have you checked out w1n1’s ‘Am Shooting Journal’ threads? He’s a true gun expert, and will gladly answer any gun related questions.
Magpul has such pretty stuff.
It depends on what you are going to use the rifle for.
I put a Magpul PRS on my groundhog gun. It’s heavy. I also use that rifle for target shooting, so I haven’t been inclined to replace it.
I don’t have a record where I got the extension, spring, or buffer from. Those were in a kit.
Expert opinions......cracked me up, lol. I got an “expert opinion” last week by a doctor to have my uvula cut off. I was watching a clip yesterday on the latest batch of new immigrants at a Miami University ceremony. They sure didn’t seem to have much enthusiasm. Somehow I think it would have been a little different if I had been there, lol. The honor guard caught my eye with a sweet looking M-14.
That's always been a weak point of the AR.
I cheered when they left Colorado and moved their HQ to Texas and their manufacturing and distribution to Wyoming.
I would agree with the exception of the trigger. IMHO, a match grade trigger is always a worthwhile investment.
Personally, I recommend the Geissele Super Semi-Automatic Enhanced (SSA-E) Trigger.
If budget is unlimited, then I would recommend:
Agree. A good trigger is worth the investment.
