    Make your own H1 H2 H3 buffer assembly?

    I recently ordered a new H2 buffer. I am now thinking I would be better off with an H3. I dont want to spend the money on a new buffer. I opened up both the old Car and new H2 buffers by removing the roll pin. There are 3 weights and in the H2 two of them are replaced with tungsten weights. My assumption is the an H1 has 1 tungsten and H3 has 3. Where can I get another tungsten weight? Is there a draw back that I am missing in just adding one to make an H3?

    Why don't you want to spend the money on the correct buffer?

    Why don't you first explain why you think that you need an H3 and what type of system you are using? I really wish people would do a little research into what they are buying and spend some time trying to understand the system.

    I thought I had made a post in reply to the second post in this thread I assume I hit the wrong button.

    "Why don't you want to spend the money on the correct buffer?"
    What is "the correct buffer" buffer is subjective. When people are having issues related to buffer weight it is often suggested that they try an H1 or H2 or H3. The problem is you dont know which is "the correct buffer" till you try it. This leads people to spend alot of money one parts they dont need. I am all for supporting the industry to a point. This type of thing hurts the consumer and the industry in the long run. Am I missing something here? Is there a reason a person should not just buy 3 tungsten weights and change the config around till they have the weight they need or want? Why buy another buffer assembly? Anyone know where I can find a weight?
    A bufer assembly consists of these parts:
    1 buffer assembly housing
    1 roll pin
    3 weights
    3 spacers to cushion weights
    1 rubber buffer (cap)

    I already own that list times two. I just need one more tungsten weight to see wether an H3 is a move in the right direction.

    Iraqgunz thank you for your reply. A few posts down you will find the reason for my thinking about an H3 buffer. Here is the link http://m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=26744
    I have spent plenty of hours on the net researching and and trying to understand this system. I have found the information helpful yet always seeming to stear me into spending more money on stuff. I have 100's of gun related tools and parts in my home that I did not need never needed and only realised it after I bought it and used it.
