Rynoring Buffer???

[PPQ]

Anyone used a "Rynoring Buffer"??

The item description says it stops "slide failure"...

NEW Walther P22 Rynoring Buffer ******** Special offer for February!!!!!! | eBay

Your thoughts?

First I would soften that claim....leaves you wide open for a lawsuit should the slide break and hit you in the mouth or eye. In fact, I'm sure it could be argued that the O ring caused it. Whether the cause or not...who would know. You do any of my mods....you're on you own... I ain't liable.

Secondly, that is awful expensive for a 10 cent 0 ring. All we need is for someone to determine the correct size for this. Then test it. I'd start with something that is the size of the retaining spring cup with a hole in middle big enough to sit on the outside of the spring.

I haven't read any reviews of the part here. My 2 cents. M1911

I checked out the page you are inquiring about, you mention it stops slide failure.
in the ad I read that it "Effectively reduces catastrophic failure" a big difference in the words from my POV.

The Idea of a recoil buffer is not new, they make them for 1911's , ruger 10/22's even the Kalashnikov family of guns have them.

The p22 is not without problems and I welcome anyone with Ideas to make this popular gun better. I now see that the Walther has revised the p22 with the p22Q and I hope they fixed some issues.

Are you the one selling these?

If you have been reading about the p22 it has been known to have catastrophic failure to the slide due to the fact that it is made of zinc. This could potentially cause serious injury or property damage.
The Rynoring will effectively eliminate this problem.

Quote from the OP listed site. I have nothing against anyone selling something but ...."will effectively eliminate" is making a pretty bold statement. Just sayin.....sell pistol parts...especially that will effectively eliminate a known problem and you had better purchase good liability insurance. I don't think "effectively" is a qualifier giving the comment any wiggle room.

I think, "think", a buffer would be of benefit.....might be wrong. M1911

After careful examination in another part of the ad says "Effectively reduces catastrophic failure of the slide". Either way, I would think it would be hard to prove a buffer caused any problems. You would have prove the damage was not done before installing it. Second, being Walther fires 1 test round from the factory who's to say it didn't happen then. Also, there is a obvious problem with the gun and I don't think anyone could deny it.

If you think the product will works, I say, go for it!!! Its worth 10 bucks if it keeps from ruining your weekend.

Just think...the Ebay poster is making $9.50 on every sale...how much mark up is that??? Now that is Capitalism with a Capital 'C'! What did PT Barnum say about suckers??

By the way...the words "Stops, Eliminates, Reduces" will all get you a liabilty lawsuit...
