I think they've said that because Jax is much more focused on basic attacks than abilities, so the ability power isn't that necessary, and neither is the spellvamp.

I'm not saying you shouldn't have the Gunblade on him, but it's a choice worth reconsidering. The 's active pretty much achieves the same thing as the . Quoted from the :

Deals 150 (+ 40% AP) magic damage and slows the target champion's movement speed by 40% for 2 seconds. 60 second cooldown. (700 range)

As opposed to :

Drains target champion, dealing 15% of the champion's maximum Health in physical damage and healing you for the damage dealt. Additionally you steal 30% of their movement speed for 3 seconds - 90 second cooldown. (450 range)

As you can see, the Gunblade has a bigger slow and longer range, and is based off of your AP, which on Jax is not a lot. On BoRK, the range is less, but the damage is based off of the opponent's health, which completely destroys tanks, which Jax can have a bit of trouble with. Also, you don't just slow them, you also steal that movement speed for not 2, but 3 seconds. And BoRK also gives you the health taken.

I suggest you reconsider the and replace it with something with magic resist, like (which actually gives the same amount of spellwamp and more lifesteal than )

I've made my own guide, if you'd like to check it out. I'm not the best player, but I'm still learning :)

I can agree that the active is identical and I'm glad you pointed it out, but in all fairness I think that it wont matter much. I didn't go with a for the active effect. I added it for the stats. As you pointed out is auto-attack based and shouldn't rely on abilities.

You're completely right. But you're looking at the complicated things. If we look at the base stats that a gives us, it gives us 45 AD and 65 AP. When gets his ultimate, his 3rd auto attack deals extra AP damage. His goes off of AP as well so that's a nice bonus. The active effect is just if you wanna get pure tanks out the way. The spellvamp I completely forgot about. barely benefits off of it but in all fairness...

My suggestion is; Build damage rather than survivability so you can execute the threats faster.
