Samson
Overview
The Samson Manufacturing BRE Bufferless Receiver Extension is a Mil-Spec carbine buffer tube designed to provide a lightweight and stable platform for your AR-15 build. As a tube-only assembly, it eliminates the need for a traditional buffer and spring, streamlining your setup while maintaining compatibility with standard components. This bufferless design is particularly well-suited for mid-length gas systems and builds chambered in 5.56 NATO, making it a reliable choice for those looking to enhance their firearm's performance.
