    Jp silent capture buffers

    What do you guys think of jp silent capture buffers? I just bought a gun that had one installed. Are they reliable?

    I put one in my first AR15 build (an 18in SPR) and it works as advertised. No noise and it gives the AR the feeling of shooting a bolt gun. I have 1500 rounds through it since I built it and no problems.

    Please tell us how it makes your AR feel like a bolt action rifle??

    It removed the sound and the vibration of the buffer moving through the buffer tube. I'm sure lubing a regular buffer achieves the same effect.

    My buddy had a lot of issues with his Mk12 build with one installed. Did lots of tweaking the buffer and his gas block to work just right with certain loads.

    Switches it to a regular rifle spring and buffer and the rifle works perfectly with whatever ammo he puts in it.

    To me it seems like it makes a very simple operating system way more complicated than it needs to be.

    It works.
    The A5 buffer system works better.

    I run 2... 1 in a precision 5.56 gun with adjustable gas and 1 in a precision 6.5 creedmore gun with adjustable gas. Both with JP lightweight carriers as well. The overall combo is excellent. Smooth with excellent recoil management. I am sure if I would tune the spring and weights it would get even better.

    I wouldnt expect MAJOR improvements or reductions in recoil simply by throwing one in and calling it done.

    I have been looking at these, and I have also been looking at the Armaspec Stealth recoil spring.

    I'm trying to figure out which one, the JP Enterprises looks to be more "tuneable", but the Armaspec is less cost.

    Has anyone else used the Armaspec Stealth recoil sping, has anyone used both?

    Finally got out and shot mine with the jp, and I can’t twll much of a difference to be honest with you.

    If it wouldn’t have came with the gun I would never buy one. Not worth it in my opinion.

    I’ve found more differences using a flat wire AR10 spring with a lightweight bcg and gas tune
