Yes, I acknowledge there are far better springs like Geissele, Sprinco, Tubbs and JP Silent, but I'm working with a budget and trying to pick the better of the two I've listed. I'm building an AR for my daughter and I have a Strike Industries flat wound spring on my workbench, as well as a JP Enterprises ground and polished spring as well as some new H/H1 buffers (for a 16 inch, carbine length gas build.)
I've used the JP polished springs before with good luck, work well, but not sure I'm buying into the hype of the S.I. flat wound spring, was hoping someone could tell me if it's really as good as they say.
