Overview
This buffer spring is intended for AR-15 builds and maintenance where a Mil-Spec replacement is needed for either a carbine with a collapsible buttstock or an A2/A4 rifle with a fixed buttstock, depending on the model selected. It suits hunters and shooters assembling a new rifle or replacing a worn part without changing the platform’s intended setup. The rifle-model spring is not for use on carbine models with a collapsible stock, so matching the spring to the correct configuration is important. Made by Aero Precision and made in the USA, it offers a straightforward parts-bin solution for keeping a compatible AR-15 running as configured.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- The rifle buffer spring version is intended for A2 and A4 AR15 rifles with a fixed buttstock, so it is not a fit for carbine setups with a collapsible stock.
- This is a Mil-Spec replacement or build component, so it is best suited to compatibility-focused use rather than feature-driven upgrades.
- The product listing covers both carbine and rifle spring types, so buyers need to confirm they are selecting the correct version for their specific AR15 configuration.
- At this price point, it is a straightforward parts replacement rather than a bundled kit with additional components.
