I have had one on my Noveske build for the last 1 1/2 years and about 1.5k rounds.

I have had no issues at all with it and the performance has been first rate. There have been guys that shot my rifle (without knowing about the JPSCS) and commented on the reduced felt recoil and no spring grating sound and asked how that was.

I bought the JPSCS on a whim to try something new and like it alot. Some diehards say its overpriced boutique item and a standard buffer and spring are good enough, but there is a noticeable performance upgrade to it.

I'll be at the HDF shoot in a few weeks and are welcome to check it out.

do you think it's worth the money you put into it? and did you have to go thru a bunch of springs to find the right adjustment?

I think the JPSCS is worth the money. JP is known for high end components and haven't had a negative yet.

As far as the springs, no issues at all. I didn't have to change the springs or buffer weights, it was plug and play. The only ones I see having to adjust springs are those running low mass BCGs, switch blocks or shortened gas systems. I don't have any components out of the ordinary ( BCG or gas tube) so no spring changes for me.

I got one too in my POF

You got to remove the buffer pin or the bolt will smack the JP buffer leaving a dent

Also if you running a magpul bad lever the bolt will not lock back so you need to buy lighter springs at JP
