G2 Heavy Duty Buffer Retainer
$14.99
In stock
The Leitner-Wise G2 Heavy Duty Buffer Retainer has a precisely angled strike face that corresponds to the vertical plane of the buffer assembly giving a greater area of surface contact. The impact of the buffer weight although in theory should be minimal is displaced over a greater surface area and because of how the pin is designed it is able to withstand any impact, unlike a traditional buffer retaining pin. The G2 heavy-duty buffer retaining pin is also a great addition to any LAW Tactical folding stock as when folded your buffer system is exposed. Lastly, we choose to use this upgraded buffer retaining pin as its larger footprint makes for easier depression of the pin with and without gloved hands. Simply put, these are the last retaining pins you will ever need to buy.

These G2 detents can take a beating and stay intact. The design aids in no shearing off like stock buffer detents can and do. I’ve used these buffer detents in 6 builds so far and 2 more will be done this year~ I have made the G2 my GoTo for Buffer Detents now, full confidence they will do the job and not fail. No matter the round count

This is how buffer retaining “pins” should have been designed from day one! This is such a marvel of engineering, I hate to say it is so “simple”, so as not to take away from Edgar Sherman Design, as this is a very needed and high quality machined part. How anyone thought a tiny little pin sticking up could handle such BCG forces and tolerance deviations, really makes no sense, except from the “produced by the lowest contract bidder” mentality. Do yourself a favor, and buy as many of these Edgar Sherman Design retainers for every AR build you have.

These pins are a must have for anyone building rifles that will see heavy use. I do wish they came with a new spring as well but overall these are great I run h them in all my ar systems now

Fantastic buffer pins. Not sure why they’re not all made this way? Great fit and functions fine. Just of note, I bought this kind of half expecting it to come with a pin spring. Just know it does not come with one. I know it may be viewed as a replacement, but I was building an AR part by part and had to order a spring separately with shipping from another seller, which was kind of frustrating. My fault. I should have called. I know most use lower parts kits, but I was building all custom as many do (Geisselle trigger, Radian lower/safety, etc) where parts come with their own pins/springs. Perhaps a checkbox in the future to add a spring for an upcharge. Seems like a small thing and quality of life improvement to consider. Outstanding products from ESD. I’ve always been impressed at how fast they ship things out (seriously, I get notification it seems within the hour) and the quality is second to none on their offerings.
