    Default AR 57 upper

    First off sorry if I posted this in the wrong section. I bought a new AR57 upper awhile back and it comes with its own buffer that is suggested to be used. A couple of months went by and i bought a Plum Crazy lower. At some point I had both buffers out and forgot which one goes where. They are different looking and are also different weight wise.
    Now I am thinking about my impulse buys and debating selling both. I want to make sure I have the right parts where they belong. If anyone could post a picture of either buffer I would appreciate it.

    Looks like the buffer for the AR57 upper weighs about 8 oz. It should be quite a bit heavier than the standard buffer which is somewhere around 4 oz. I think.

    I sent him a PM about it yesterday.

    Haven't heard back yet though and I need it like I need an extra orifice in my body. If he parts ways with it and offers it to me I will send him your way first.
