Anybody running a JP Enterprises Captured Buffer?

[Pokem807]

Took my 10.5" pistol out yesterday and ran a few mags through her. Ran like a top with no issues. So of course I want to tweak it some more because I'm bored. I'd like to drop a Fostech Echo 2 binary trigger in, but paying north of $400 is just stupid.

Something that has interested me for a while is the JP Enterprises Silent Captured Spring. The noise attenuation doesn't matter much since I don't suppress, but anything that smooths out the recoil impulse is a good thing. I'm currently running a carbine buffer, so I should probably change to a H2 anyway.

Anyone here run/ran one of these? If so, which model would be best for a 10.5" barrel?

Ive always been curious about those but the price keeps me from trying it. I run a H2 in mine right now.

I have one in my goto carbine. I cant say it smooths out recoil, at least I havnt noticed a real difference between it and my other carbines. If you want to smooth out recoil, id say go with a low mass carrier. In a AR, that moving mass is most of the recoil impulse. Maybe a comp/brake.

I do like the JP because I dont embrace the "sprang".

Do you run the SCS suppressed or can you tell a difference unsuppressed?

I run them in a lot of my guns. Love them. Everything JP makes is top quality.

I run mine suppressed and unsuppressed. Love it

Unsuppressed. I havnt noticed a difference. I will say that I havnt ran one in a DI. I only have one DI, the rest are pistons guns

It's not made specifically for suppressor use. It's made to take out that twang sound and to be adjustable to tailor fit your load.
The best thing I've found for suppressor use is the bolt carrier from Gemtech.

I'm going to try one of these out. For a 10.5" upper, should I go with the "heavy" version?

For the 10.5" if you don't have an adjustable gas block, yea, go heavy. I have them in most of my AR's and love them.
