Hi, I’m a new member and hope someone can name this part. I’ve tried online parts lists but am unable to name it correctly to get a hit.  I’d be grateful for any help.

Thanks, Jeff

    Morning Jeffrey

    Welcome to the Forum

    I believe they call that a buffer stop BMW used them on several models so should not be that hard to find.

    One of our Z3/4 drivers may be along to confirm 

    Hope this helps your search

    I think Dave has hit the nail on the head with the name of this component

    Thanks so much, Trevor & Dave.  Once I put in “Buffer Stop” on a parts site it immediately came up with the right gizmo!

    Regards, Jeff
