Crazyhern Posted December 22, 2022 Report Share Posted December 22, 2022 I am looking to replace my factory buffer for a hydraulic buffer on my RRA LAR-8 .308 mid-length 16” A4 carbine. Can anyone suggest a good replacement? I am trying to minimize recoil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterrex Posted December 22, 2022 Report Share Posted December 22, 2022 A muzzle brake will do more for recoil than a fancy buffer that doesn't work well on these large frame guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's unlikely anyone would recommend one for anything, but RRA is proprietary in it's design and AFAIK, there aren't any hydraulic buffers out there for it.
