Hi, i have a kwa mkII ptp, and was wondering if the dytac night sights for the marui meu and the airsoft surgeon shock buffers would be able to fit on to my kwa mkII.

the sights may work, but i doubt you would need the buffer on a KWA. unless someone else here has tried it, you probably wont know if the sights fit until you try it.

its a KWA airsoft gun. they are built to last. honestly, i cant see the need for a shock buffer on any airsoft gun, there just isn't enough force involved in the mechanism. the shock buffers are designed to cushion the power of a .45ACP round, the amount of energy at play for an airsoft replica doesn't even begin to come close to that.

The shock buffers are designed for TM 1911 clones (mainly WEs) that break the spring guide cap and barrel bushing because of the force against those two parts. The shock buffer absorbs that shock.

You don't need it on a KWA, and it probably wouldn't fit.
