Furthermore I don't understand why a buffer would cause feeding problems even if it short strokes the action slightly...could someone explain this to me?
That seemed to be the main problem with my guns that had them installed, or at least it seemed so to me. The rearward movement of the bolt carrier was noticeably reduced with the buffer installed, even when just cycling the action by hand.

Unfortunately, yeah. There's an unmistakable mark on the rear that matches up perfectly with the very end of the BCG. Nothing else would have made that.
I'd have to think something was wrong then, and needed addressing. The buffer would just be a quick fix, and I think it probably wouldnt last to long either, which adds another issue, the buffer failing, and the pieces tying up the gun.

Just out of curiosity, wheat make AK is it essohbe?
