MarkCO Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 - bolt carrier group - JP Low Mass - recoil system - Carbine buffer and JP flatwire spring - adjustable gas block - None (if forced with a gas system too short or port too large, Superlative Arms) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Phillips Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I used to run a standard gas block, full mass rainier arms bolt/carrier, and standard carbine buffer with a rifle length gas system. last year I went all JP with the setup. Adjustable gas block, LMOS carrier, enhanced bolt, and silent captured recoil spring. The setup is absolutely amazing for recoil reduction and the JP carrier is super easy to clean. the one thing about running the rifle length gas system is that I am running the adjustable gas block nearly wide open. In my case, I don't think the adjustable block makes any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Donald Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I run a JP light weight bolt.carrier A2 tube with a JP spring/buffer Rifle gas system with a Faxom GUNNER barrel and gas block. Shoots real smooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCKLST Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) I run 18" rifle length BCG and Bolt - Iron City Rifle Works EVO G2 Competition Series Recoil System - Taccom ALW 223 recoil system and enhanced rifle spring Adjustable Gas Block - Odin Works Muzzle Break - Odin Works Atlas 5 Edited January 22, 2017 by PCKLST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RigPig Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 18" Nordic barrel with rifle-length gas, fixed gas block, JP LMOS bcg, JP light rifle buffer (red) and JP extra power rifle length buffer spring. I've run it for 4 years, it's boringly reliable. I run a Lantac brake, which could be improved upon with something like an SJC or Rolling Thunder comp.

REDPANDA Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 JP Components are the way to go, one of the best companies for reliable product. In 3 gun, you want reliability JP lightened bolt carrier and bolt (bolt carrier has a special coating for a smoother action) JP lightened buffer and spring Seekins adjustable gas block Combine this with a JP, Lantac, Odin, or Surefire competition brake and you have a very flat shooting rifle Midlength gas system will allow you to optimize on the potential of all these components Welcome to the sport!

NoKimberDave Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I understand why people buy JP stuff after handling a few items and rifles, and I perceive it to be the best stuff available for AR15's. I'd own JP if money were no object, but it is, and I am just a hobbyist. Therefore, I went about as cheap I could could go for a low mass system. 18" Faxon gunner rifle w/ Apex brake (this brake is so slim and perfect for these barrels, imo) AIM LW BCG Sprinco reduced power spring Taccom plastic carbine buffer Cheap cheap cheap. But, it shoots great. Very smooth and very happy with it. At some point I'll likely have to upgrade to JP or Iron City or something, as I don't have a lot of allusions about the quality of the 110$ AIM.

biglou13 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Tax com buffer system both rifle and carbine legnth rubber city gas key, d Wilson mfgr. For bolt and bcg ross sculler muzzle brake ( largest part of perceived recoil equation) was working towards a budget build..... It holds it own wit big $$$$ rifles if I wanted to build another and I'd and I had unlimited funds...... I'd use same components. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tatertot Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Forget the adjustable GB. They will seize up at some point and just make you frustrated. All you need is a low mass BCG with JP Silent Captured Spring with variable spring kit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglou13 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 i'm going to have to respectfully dis agree with tater while the components listed are great parts and work great and are $$$ i think tuning the gas tames the rifle movement that little bit more in addition to lo mass BCG and tuned buffer spring, go to a gas key on BCG and it is serviceable and have yet to hear of blockage.

TonytheTiger Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 (edited) I'm also going to have to disagree with tatertot. When I was buying all these go fast parts one at a time, having all the low mass components without adjustable gas actually put the rifle in a very overgassed state, the recoil was noticeably sharper. The other option (if you load your ammo) is to tune your ammo to your components. But yes, it's likely that any adjustable GB is going to freeze up or erode. I own GB's ranging from $30-$120 and my current philosophy is to buy the cheap ones and consider them disposable parts. Any time I make a significant load change or buy other parts and need to retune the gas I just get a new GB.
