decent quality and least expensive way to go
These seem a bit expensive for little chunks of weight but it's the least expensive way to go (not a complaint of Kak's pricing). The weights were comparable in size to the original steel weights inside of the original "mil-spec" buffer. Pretty straight forward: drive out the roll pin, pull out the "bumper", and swap out the number of tungsten weights you want for the original steel weights. From a cost perspective, I found this to be the least expensive way to test the rifle's function with different weight buffers as opposed to buying four different weight buffers. There's no way to really know which buffer is best suited to your particular gun considering all of the different combinations of components available. Its also a bit less expensive to "upgrade" than buying the heavier buffers outright, especially if you already have a standard weight buffer. I found that these weights did not fit one of the buffers I had on hand but I suspect it's due to an out-of-spec buffer and not Kak's fault - I have no idea where I got the buffer or what brand it might be. Overall, worth the money if you need the heavier buffer. Oh, and Kak was on spot with quick delivery.

Don't buy a whole new buffer if you already have one!
If you need a heavier recoil buffer, simply swap 1,2,or 3 of these with the steel weights in the typical carbine buffer. Way cheaper than buying a whole new buffer, functionally it is exactly the same. Buy multiples at a time to save on shipping. Having a bag of these on hand makes it faster and cheaper to tune a rifle. This is the cheapest price that I've found on the net.

Awesome
Only place I could find to order individual weights! Is very handy if you want to upgrade your current buffer yourself.

Great product and shipping
Weights worked great for dialing in buffers for my builds. And fast shipping as always.

Buffer weight allows customizing !
Ordered one of these weights to try to customize a buffer for a 9mm pistol build. The stock 9mm buffer is not customizable. So I ordered one of these weights to modify an H2 buffer. Works great in the 9mm, slowed down cyclic rate a little, but the brass doesn't fly into the county !

Tungsten
Best way to increase the weight of you buffer

Woth their weight in...well, tungsten!
These little guys are great for modifying a buffer if you need a specific weight. Each one is .556" wide, .597" long, and weighs 1.5oz. I'm using them for a finicky 9mm build that loves a heavy buffer. KAK is one of the only places I've seen that offers them for sale as individual pieces. Great job!!

excellent price for part
These tungsten weights were the best price I found for individual piece. I bought a few and all weighed the same. This is the best way to turn crappy carbine buffers into H2. I found 2 tungsten and 1 steel to be just heavier than a spikes t2 buffer. Will buy more for future builds.
