pcs352 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 There are many fish out there but the JP is still the one to beat IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul-the new guy Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Low mas, JP for sure. Ultra low mass, Boomfab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFguywhoshoots Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I have a rubber city armory one in my current setup and like it. I have around 3k rounds through it with no issues so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed F Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 It seems like Rubber City is the best bang for the buck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonytheTiger Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 There's a reason JP costs more. You get what you pay for. If your going to shoot a little, buy whatever and it will probably work. If your going to shoot a lot buy the JP and never worry about your carrier again. If your shooting a lot the $50 dollar price difference is just a drop in a bucket anyways.

Brian04rs Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Ive been using a ap customs rhino low mass bcg, rifle shoots soft and flat (250 for complete with Ti firing pin??) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OPENB Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) I'm liking my Voodoo Inovations. Using with a Nordic 18" barrel & SLR Sentry 7 adjustable gas block opened half way with Wolf Gold at 3000 fps. I did have to get the lightened buffer spring from TTI & I removed all but one of the weights from the rifle buffer.

I've got an 18" WOA rifle gas barrel, Seekins adjustable gas block, and JP Silent Captured Spring with the lightest spring installed. It shoots incredibly flat and so very smooth.

gerritm Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 JP is still the best. Plus one, also so easy to clean with their coating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacMan Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 JP is still the best. Yep! Tried a Voodoo one just being on the cheap, didn't work very well (issue with gas flow already posted in another thread) even with new bolt and rings so sent it back to Brownells and swapped out for a JP LMOS... Buy once, cry once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aimtrue0531 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I am looking for one of these as well and am very torn between the JP and the AP Rhino. XtReMe90- whats your thoughts on the AP? that is the one i am leaning towards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgj3 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 JP's are the standard to meet for sure. That said, I've been running two of the Young's super lights for a few years now and they have been great with all factory ammo and have had no trouble from the with my 2100fps 55gr handloads either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnson184 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Are you guys talking about the regular JP LMOS? Or the aluminum version that's even more expensive? And may be a stupid question... but can you use any bolt just fine inside their low mass BCG? Or should you pair it with the JP Enhanced bolt?

HotLoad Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 My guess is guys are talking about the standard JP low mass as being the best bang for the buck. The bolt carrier will accept any mil spec bolt but it is hard to beat the JP enhanced bolt. Buy both together and get a little price break.

bigblock455 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I have a Voodoo and a JP. JP is noticeably smoother racking it I like the impulse better and as Gerrit says above much easier to clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigblock455 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) I'm referring to the JP LMOS and JP enhanced bolt Edited August 23, 2015 by bigblock455 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcloudy777 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I use the Super Light from Young's Manufacturing, mainly becuase when I was needing a new carrier last year I could never find the JP in stock. I love it. It's hard-crhormed, so gunk just wipes rigfht off, and it's smoothed out the gun quite nicely. I just recently paired it with a Enidine/ITT hydraulic buffer... between the 16.5" rifle-length gas barrel, the JP recoil eliminator (open gun), and this BCG/buffer setup, it's the lightest recoiling 5.56 AR I've ever shot.
