Recoil buffer
A recoil buffer is a factory-installed or aftermarket accessory component for firearms placed between operating metal parts which impact one another, such as the slide and the frame of a semi-automatic pistol. Buffers cushion the battering force of repeated impact, reducing wear on parts and lengthening the service life of the firearm.
