    I have one of those too.



    But I bought it at the original initial price which is less than what they’re selling for now….

    The one here is on its second or third trigger - apparently a $3000 trigger is not good enough.
    It displayed a FTE - eject or extract I don't know, don't know the ammo, but I was not impressed.

    That’s sufficiently vague to be unhelpful.

    Depending on round counts, things get worn.

    I went though a trigger on the MPX in six months.

    It was 15k rounds…

    My second JP5 came in today.

    Gotta pay to play.

    On sports cars, the tires last 5000-10000 miles. Because performance.

    Without actual information, anecdotes second hand aren’t helpful.

    Bedsides, I think a lot of serious gamers change triggers anyway.

    It’s not a $3k trigger. The innovation is in the bolt and barrel.

    New gun over a couple of weeks.
    The buyer is a serous competitor who did immediately replace the factory trigger with something he liked the feel of.
    It did not fire reliably so he replaced it.

    Ammunition sensitivity, yeah. I see more malfunctions in PCCs than PCPs.

    There are only a small handful of triggers that work in this gun without interference.

    So far mine with a factory trigger has eaten everything without a malfunction.

    If he replaced the trigger but not the safety that’s the issue. The safety has a hump that mates to the specific JP trigger.

    It has to be replaced if you’re putting in a different trigger.

    Bubba gunsmithing errors don’t count as OEM factory failure.

    That is what bugs me, dissatisfaction with high end stuff.

    I don’t understand? Your friend being dissatisfied and making it worse by tinkering?

    Or you’re dissatisfied with high end stuff because of tinkering?

    High end stuff doesn’t mean it’s perfect for a specific user.

    That’s a misconception.

    I’m more likely to modify my Porsche than my Subaru…

    How is the testing going?

    Have you tried different locking pieces with different ammo? Different PF?

    What locking piece did your PCCs come with?
    With liberty and justice for all...must be 18, void where prohibited, some restrictions may apply, not available in all states.

    Good. Haven’t gotten into different locking. Have tried different PF ammo. Standard locking.

    Have to quote or tag me or else I don’t know you’re asking!

    Update. Mine came with 80* locks and I just ordered a 70* to test.
