Nitride Steel Buffer Detent - AR-15

Stainless steel with a nitride finish provides both durability and an upgraded look. Operation is super smooth, and it’s definitely an improvement over standard buffer detents I’ve used in the past.

The detent is well-machined and noticeably smoother than the stock part I replaced. Only reason it's not five stars is the spring tension took a bit to break in, but overall, I'd buy it again.

This was the finishing touch on my custom AR lower. The nitride finish is flawless, and the fit is snug yet functional. No more gritty feeling when charging the rifle. Highly recommended for a clean, professional build.

My old detent felt gritty, so I installed this stainless one. Now, every time I release the bolt, it snaps into place confidently. Worth every penny if you’re into fine-tuning your AR for smoother performance.

After swapping this part in, my buffer locks up perfectly. The stainless steel looks sharp, and there’s no rough edge to snag. Rated four stars only because I wish it came with a second spring as a backup.

Installation was a breeze, and the detent functions flawlessly. I appreciate the corrosion resistance of the nitride finish. It’s a small part, but it made my lower assembly feel more refined.

The detent itself is high quality and seems well-finished. However, the spring included was too stiff for my setup, causing slight drag. After trimming it, everything worked fine. Overall, a decent product for the price.

Replaced my factory buffer detent with this stainless nitride version, and it works beautifully. The sleek look is a bonus, and it’s made my bolt release much smoother. Solid pick if you want a little more reliability.

This stainless steel part is leaps above the standard detent. It glides effortlessly, and the included spring was the perfect length for my AR lower. Feels like it’ll hold up to heavy use without wearing out.
