Ar pistol buffer

[Cudruln]

What is the best practice to have for a buffer for an AR pistol. Obviously the pistol buffer would be hands down no questions asked free of legal difficulty. But what is the possible consequences of going the adjustable buffer with some type of covering device.

I have seen people use duct tape and para cord, shoe laces and bubble gum or whatever other crap they can find in the closet floor. So what do you think is the best practice for this?

Should I just do the pistol buffer or go with the covered adjustable buffer.

Technically speaking your fine with a standard mil spec tube, but then there are possible issues of constructive intent.

Anything other than an explicitly designed pistol buffer is just you trying to prove that you don't intend to create a short barre rifle

That is what I am thinking. Just go the no questions asked route and if I decide to sbr it I could switch the buffer then. Obviously if somebody really wanted to push they could make it hard for me.

I personally prefer the blade.

Just don't shoulder it in public and you're good to go.

Here is my MK18 with it.

I have considered this also. I did the whole sig brace thing and was never impressed with the size of it. I may try swapping it out for a blade.

It's lighter, cheaper, and looks way better.
