Whats your din at right now? normally i would tell anyone who asks if they need an 18 din binding that they do not need it. But with your size you might

I just got my jj's and I think I am going with the pivot 14. Should I go with the 115 mm brake and bend the brake a little, or get the 130 mm brake?

Go with the 115mm brake, they will fit fine on the JJ. I have the 115mm brake on my AK JJ and I don't think that I had to bend the brake at all. I have been informed by a rep that their brakes will usually fit up to 10mm wider than the stated width, without needing to be bent.

Also I believe the 130mm brake FKS only comes in an 18 din version.
