POF-USA's Mil-Spec 7075-T6 aircraft aluminum Anti-Tilt Buffer Tube uses "carrier cradle" extensions to ensure the carrier is always supported by the buffer tube, even when the bolt is forward. This prevents carrier tilt and premature wear on the buffer tube.
Features:
- 6-position Mil-Spec carbine buffer tube
- 7075-T6 aircraft aluminum construction
- Carrier cradle extensions prevent carrier tilt
- Buffer-detent button doubles as an anti-rotation lock
- 3 extra drain holes for marine environments
- Black anodized finish
- 4.8 oz weight
The buffer-detent button doubles as a lock that stops the buffer tube from rotating and becoming loose under extreme operating conditions, and three extra drain holes help the tube shed water in marine or wet environments.
Note: compatible with all P415 and P416 rifles using a 6-position buffer tube, as well as P308 rifles manufactured before October 2012. Newer P308 rifles use a 7-position buffer tube instead -- check your rifle's serial number date and adjustable stock position count before purchasing.
Patriot Ordnance Factory (POF-USA) has positioned itself through superior engineering and design in making the AR platform the best it can be, delivering a unique take on the platform unlike anything else on the market.

Great high end component.
by Josh t
Very high quality buffer tube. My bcm stock is bank vault tight. Smooth on the inside. Threads are cut well. If you are doing a bojie build this is the one.
Could be Better
by Joshua -
OK- The good:
*Its 7075-T6
*Anti-tilt carrier supports
*more drain holes than mil-spec
The not so good:
* Finish is decent at best
*Minimal if any dry-film lube inside tube
*No stock position numbers on top
*Slightly on the expensive side
Verdict: Im a bit disappointed in the finishing work. Installation was good but if Spikes made an anti-tilt buffer tube I would buy Spikes all day long! Spikes tubes have a better finish, more dry lube inside the tube and have position indication marks.
Missing carrier support ears and drainage holes.

Received the POF receiver extension still sealed in the blister pack. Without removing it I could see it did not have the carrier support ears or the extra drainage holes.
One of the top upgrades for any AR
by Callon -
I fell in love with POF rifles a long time ago and parts like this are the reason why. This buffer tube is one of the best upgrades you can make to any AR, period. The finish is a flawless deep black, and you can feel and hear how smooth the anti-tilt lips make the action, not to mention the reduced long term BCG wear. The extended lips completely enclosing the retaining pin really lock this thing in tight, it's rock steady and even if your castle nut were to spontaneously disappear it wouldn't go anywhere. Not to mention having the POF-USA logo displayed across the back of your rifle is pretty sweet, call me a fanboy but it's not without reason.
The Best
by Orlando -
Awesome, the anti-tilt feature is bar-none the best. Awesome buffer and worth the cost.
A solid upgrade and solution
by Jim
Very well made tube that seems noticeably more stout that mil spec. This pin retention concept fixed a problem with a customer's lower receiver that had been improperly mfg./threaded (causing the buffer tube to not fully engage the retainer pin). In addition the continuous cradle of the BCG prevents wear.
Look no further!

I know it's only a buffer tube but I can't get over how excited I am to have it. It just makes sense why would you look any further. The pic does it no justice. The finish is a deep black and it's flawless. No my AR is not a museum piece it's a tool but I want to be the one that bangs it up and breaks it in. I don't want it sent to me that way. Primary Arms shipping/service is second to none!
Fastest shipping I ever saw!

Ordered Saturday at 11:50. Received Monday .. TX to NC!
This buffer tube fits ANY Mil-spec carbine. With a JP Enterprises silent buffer I didn't need a buffer detent, so it was ground flush with the tube lip for the "anti-tilt" function. I call "BS" on those saying you can't open the weapon normally. The BCG slightly eases the buffer back as I intended and sits on the lower tube lip for completely linear operation. Opens and closes effortlessly with the rear pin. Project for the wife. Months of research by a 30 year retired engineer. Over $2k parts and carbine for a $600 Ruger AR-556 (we're fans). You can't do better for your rifle than this buffer tube or ordering from Primary Arms.
Nice Tube!
by anonymous
Great quality piece, with excellent design and manufacturing. Interior finish is very nice and extra size tabs are great for additional support and stability.
Nice anti tilt design
by Dave
Works perfectly, nice tolerances. Great for use with a Piston AR upper as the extra material protects the buffer tube threads on your lower. Nice side effect is that it also keeps the buffer tube from spinning should your castle nut work loose...uh you did stake that castle nut didn't you?
