Searching for an AR-15 Pistol Buffer Tube

[Palehorse68]

I've been searching high & low for a pistol buffer. They all seem to be back ordered or out of stock. I found this one:

I've heard good stuff about Spike's so I figure I can't go wrong...thoughts??

All of Spike's stuff is GTG. Buy with confidence that you'll be getting quality. As for the company that's selling those...never heard of them, much less done business with them.

HOWEVER...let me suggest a cheaper alternative that's also in stock. Check on Palmetto State Armory's PSA Pistol Buffer tube. They generally run around $22 or so (albeit without the end plate and castle nut, but those are cheap and relatively easy to come by even in the current craze of buying). Hard to justify the $48 for the Spike's over a $22 alternative simply for the Spike's name, the castle nut and end plate, and a QD swivel sling mount.
