Billet or forged? Need a rifle

[Matt1911]

I'm using the SJC Titan comp. I need to try it out side by side with my JP comp to see if I feel much of a difference, I doubt there's much.

The JP comp is Good but it's not as loud or as effective as some. It's also not hardened steel like some. It will wear and become less effective after several thousand rounds. You can tune it which is nice. If you look around you will see a bunch of "which comp is best" threads on the Internet. The answer is nobody has a way to quantify what best is. They all do the job of reducing recoil and muzzle rise. Best bet is to try a few for yourself and learn how it all works/looks to you. I chased the best comp for about 2 years and finally said screw it when I realized that one miss costs more time per match then I could ever save by reducing recoil to zero.

If I choose light, you would still recommend a different comp or go with jp comp?

Is the medium alot more weight? I was planning the jp comp.... I'm sure they both shoot better then me. Lol

I did do a black rain lower. So now I'm debating if I should do the billet upper or save the money and get forged.

I appreciate all the input on this guy's. Hopefully in two weeks I can order it. I'm sure it won't shoot 55's so all my ammo I had is probably junk... Hahaha

Mismatched company biller uppers/lowers usually don't look the best together. The lines on billet upper/lower sets are usually designed to compliment each other. If I bought billet I'd get a matched set from the same company. I'd save the BRO lower for another BRO build or sell it and get a complete JP receiver set. Or better yet buy a complete JP CTR-02 or whatever their newest complete bullet rifle is. Complete JP billet rifles are super smooth and they do several cool things during the machining process and assembly prices to maximize accuracy potential and overall badassery of their guns.
