Golden Eagle AK-47 Full Metal Buffer Tube, Black

The buffer tube is the structural backbone where your stock mounts on an AK platform. On Golden Eagle AKs, this is the part that takes the abuse when you're working the action and moving through tight spaces. This one is full metal, which means it won't crack or deform under normal use the way polymer can.

What you're getting. An 8-inch buffer tube in black finish, weighing 14.5 ounces. That weight is real metal—aluminum or steel alloy depending on the casting. It's not a light part, and it's not supposed to be. The mass adds to the overall balance of the rifle and gives you something solid to anchor your stock against.

Compatibility. This is designed for Golden Eagle AK platforms with V3 gearboxes. Most AK-pattern AEGs use the same buffer tube mounting pattern, but there are variations between manufacturers. If your current tube is cracked, stripped, or you're upgrading from a polymer version, this should fit. Verify the threading and mounting points match your specific rifle before you buy.

Installation. Swapping a buffer tube usually requires basic hand tools and some patience. You're working around the gearbox, so disconnect the battery first. If you're not comfortable with disassembly, a local tech can do this in under 30 minutes.

Does not include stock or mounting hardware—check what your current setup uses before ordering.
