The Cobalt Kinetics/ VLTOR A5-CK buffer system is a joint collaboration between both visionary brands in hopes of evolving the current A5 system to an even smoother recoil mitigation system. The raised “anti-tilt” feature on the A5 buffer came into reality from a specific request that we made. Our engineering team noticed that even though carrier tilt is mainly an issue that plagues gas piston systems, carrier/ buffer cavitation is still commonplace in gas impingement systems. We decided to focus our joint design efforts on that to help reduce any unnecessary movement that comes from the “flat on flat” relationship that the carrier and traditional buffers have. The end result is a smoother running version of the A5 system, and a superior buffer system (when compared to dated carbine buffer systems).

Really helps the A5 system preform well.

Smooth like butter, nice little upgrade.

Probably doesn’t make the biggest difference but something the little things add up :). Quality kit

ck A5 H2, great buffer for my 14.5” setup. Vltor products are top-notch.

Nice little upgrade from my regular A5-H2. Hopefully they get the H3 in stock soon so I can get it as well.
