Buffers are one of the most polarizing subjects in gun forums… discussing them seems to bring out the absolute worst in some people.

I am a fan of them and I know full well what the opposition thinks of them.

I had no idea that S&W ever had or marketed anything like this for a 3rd Gen. Can you point to any source to learn more about this?

For sure… any item that is designed to be HIT and also to flex and absorb when hit needs to be tended to, but I believe that handguns need to be tended to, so I do that.

Where do you get more of these — or do you cut, shape and fit them yourself?
