jds shutter for me. r type doesn’t look as aesthetically pleasing or comfortable, and having a buffed shutter seems amazing

If you have or are getting an IQ, go with the JDS. It’s a different experience and a very nice one at that. I have all 3 and the R type really plays very similar to IQ.

Have you considered a wide angle shutter? Also a superb choice.

Between the two I would choose Jds shutter.

R type is basically a heavier IQ

We’ll that’s a question I can’t really answer. It really depends on your play style and preference. Shutter is going to be a bit narrower and sharp on the catch. It’s going to feel a bit more compact leading it to feel faster. That might be an allusion though, both are plenty fast when you push them.
