Looking to replace a 5.56 in the safe, figured I would go with a jp to match my new lrp-07.

I wish I.could afford the matching SCR-11, however thats about a grand over my budget. I like the set up of the gladiator. Anyone have experience with one??

Looking for a general utility rifle, something for hd, but able to keep a tight group. Rifle will be wearing a 2moa T1.
 
Jp quality, nice updated rail, SS barrel.... what's not to like? I've only seen them for sale on GB and they were priced in that $2500 range. I'd rather go with a KAC mod 1.
 
Forgot pic sorry.

I'm sure the JP is a fine weapon but I don't see many (if any) advantages over the mod 1.

Yes, the SS barrel would be nice, but you plan on running a T1....

KAC has made many improvements to the AR, (ambi lower, E3 bolt, extended rail... of course you know all this).

Either way, both are a great piece of kit.

Best of luck
