Buffer Technologies recoil buffers are used to reduce parts wear and recoil of your firearms. These polymer recoil buffers prevent the metal-on-metal impact of a bolt or slide from impacting the frame while firing. They are made from Estane 58130, which is not affected by common firearm cleaners, making them last for hundreds of rounds.

The Smith & Wesson Recoil Buffer eliminates the metal to metal impact of the slide and frame. This unique buffer fits over the recoil spring and guide when the pistol is reassembled and is set in place against the frame the first time the action is cycled.

Installation of the Smith and Wesson Recoil Buffer will result in reduced felt recoil, enhanced muzzle control, and a longer service life. The Smith and Wesson Recoil Buffer will fit all center fire models of the third generation pistols. This product wil not work in the Sigma line of pistols.

This buffer is not compatible with the S&W 99 pistol and will not fit polymer frames.

This is an upgrade after market buffer, original weapon did not have a buffer.
