Features
Reinforced buffer retainer (RBF) by Forward Controls The Reinforced buffer retainer (RBF) by Forward Controls is a meticulously engineered component designed to enhance the reliability and durability of your AR platform. Crafted with precision using Swiss machining techniques, the RBF is constructed from high-grade 17-4 stainless steel bar stock and undergoes a rigorous heat treatment process to achieve an H900 hardness level. This ensures exceptional strength and resilience, making it a robust addition to your firearm. One of the standout features of the RBF is its reinforced tip, which is 10% larger (0.102 inches) than the traditional TDP specification (0.093 inches). This enhancement is carefully calibrated to avoid timing issues with the receiver extension, maintaining the versatile round tip design of the standard TDP buffer retainer. This design choice ensures seamless installation following Technical Manual (TM) instructions, providing a straightforward upgrade for your AR system. While a reinforced buffer retainer might seem unnecessary when all components function perfectly, the reality of mixing and matching parts from various manufacturers often leads to tolerance stacking issues. The RBF addresses this common problem by offering a durable solution that prevents the breakage and potential jamming caused by a failed buffer retainer. Its billet construction and reinforced tip act as a form of inexpensive insurance, safeguarding your firearm's performance without compromising on quality. The RBF is a standalone product, available with optional buffer retainer springs. Understanding the stress these springs endure during installation and removal, Forward Controls includes two extra springs for those who opt for them, ensuring you have the necessary components for a reliable setup. Compatible with AR-15/M16 mil-spec rifle and carbine receiver extensions, as well as Vltor A5 system receiver extensions, the RBF is a versatile upgrade for a wide range of AR platforms. Enhance your firearm's reliability and performance with the Reinforced buffer retainer by Forward Controls, a product where precision engineering meets practical functionality.
