This video provides a quick tip on using the Brownells Offset Buffer Retainer for AR-15 maintenance. Caleb from Brownells explains how this device solves common issues caused by manufacturing tolerances in lower receivers, oversized upper receiver threads, or short bolt carrier groups. The offset retainer prevents the buffer from improperly contacting the retainer, avoiding wear and malfunctions such as teeth and chatter marks on the buffer and damage to the buffer tube. The installation process is shown to be simple, similar to a standard retainer, but effectively repositions the buffer to eliminate these problems. The presenter emphasizes that while not every AR-15 needs this part, it's an invaluable solution for those experiencing these specific issues.
