LBE Unlimited Recoil Buffer — .308 Win Rifle-Length AR-10, Silver Aluminum (Model ARBF308R | UPC 765857617725)
Optimize recoil control, protect your rifle’s internals, and smooth the cycling of your AR-10/.308 platform with the LBE Unlimited Recoil Buffer (ARBF308R). Purpose-designed for .308 Win / 7.62 NATO rifle-length gas systems, this precision-machined silver aluminum buffer moderates bolt carrier impact, reduces felt recoil, and helps deliver more consistent follow-up shots — all while fitting directly into standard AR-10 rifle-length receiver extensions.
Why this buffer matters (SEO keywords: .308 recoil buffer, AR-10 buffer, rifle length buffer, ARBF308R)
A properly matched recoil buffer tuned for .308 rifles can dramatically improve the shooting experience. The ARBF308R was engineered to handle the mass and timing of larger-bore AR-10 systems, spreading rearward energy over a longer stroke and softening bolt hammering. The result: a smoother recoil impulse, reduced muzzle climb, and less mechanical shock to your buffer tube and carrier — translating to improved accuracy and component longevity.
Precision Construction & Purpose Tuning
Material: CNC-machined aluminum for excellent strength-to-weight performance.
Finish: Durable silver anodized/coating for corrosion resistance and a refined appearance.
Form Factor: Rifle-length profile sized for AR-10 receiver extensions and designed to interface cleanly with standard rifle-length recoil springs.
Tuning: Mass and geometry optimized for .308/.30 caliber timing characteristics to improve cycling consistency across typical factory and handloaded ammo.
Key Benefits & Performance Improvements
Reduced Felt Recoil: Dampens sharp impulse so shooters feel a softer, more controllable recoil.
Improved Follow-Up Speed: Less muzzle rise and smoother return help you reacquire targets faster.
Smoother Bolt Carrier Impact: Lowers mechanical shock to the buffer tube and carrier, which can extend part life.
Reliable Cycling: Helps stabilize carrier timing in rifle-length gas systems across a range of loads.
Lightweight & Durable: Aluminum construction reduces unnecessary mass while maintaining structural integrity.
Ideal Applications
AR-10 and other rifle-length .308 Win / 7.62 NATO platforms
Precision and hunting carbines seeking reduced recoil and better control
Competition shooters wanting improved follow-up speed and consistency
Duty and patrol rifles where gentle cycling increases component longevity
Gunsmiths and builders tuning buffer/spring packages for optimal function
Technical Specifications
Manufacturer: LBE Unlimited
Model: ARBF308R
UPC: 765857617725
Caliber / Platform: .308 Win / 7.62 NATO — AR-10 rifle-length systems
Type: Recoil buffer (rifle length)
Material: CNC aluminum, silver anodized/coated
Compatibility: Standard rifle-length buffer tubes and springs (verify carrier/buffer interface for your BCG)
Use: Recoil mitigation, smoother cycling, carrier impact reduction
Installation & Tuning Overview
Safety first: Ensure the rifle is unloaded and the upper is removed from the lower before working on the buffer assembly.
Remove the existing buffer and spring from the receiver extension.
Install the ARBF308R in the buffer tube with the appropriate rifle-length recoil spring.
Reassemble and perform a function check; start with standard factory loads to confirm reliable cycling.
Fine-tune spring weights or buffer combinations if necessary for suppressed use or non-standard bolt/carrier masses.
Note: AR-10 designs vary between manufacturers—verify buffer and spring compatibility for your specific BCG and receiver. If unsure, consult the manufacturer or a qualified armorer.
Care & Maintenance
Keep the buffer and spring clean of heavy carbon build-up — wipe down and lightly lubricate contact surfaces as part of routine rifle maintenance.
Inspect periodically for unusual wear, cracks, or deformation and replace if needed.
The anodized finish can be cleaned with a soft cloth and solvent safe for firearm surfaces; avoid harsh abrasives.
