Buffer question

[cavscout82nd]

Hi folks, got a question for the congrigaction; what's the difference between a carbine buffer, H (heavy) buffer, and an H2(heavy) buffer? My AR has a "standard" carbine buffer and I was wondering if it was worth replacing with and H or H2 buffer. and if yes, how would it help. As always, I appreciate the help.

CAR = 3.0oz
H = 3.8oz
H2 = 4.6oz
H3 = 5.6oz

The carbine buffer has three steel weights in it.

The H buffer replaces one steel weight with a tungsten weight.

The H2 uses two and the H3 uses three tunsten weights.

Thanks for the help gentlemen. It looks like I'll replace my CAR buffer with an H1 buffer.
