but how often does that happen?
Probably not often but I have seen it happen on 2 different uppers. One was a bear creek arsenal and the other was a Colt 9681 9mm AR.

Waiting on shorter handguards and will change them. Not sure if I'll use a dust cover.

What do you gain by this decision

About $6. Just kidding. I forgot to order one.

What are the Gucci bcgs now?
I need to finish my 10.5" upper. Trying to decide on the superlative arms piston kit or a normal bcg and adjustable gas block.
I haven't bought parts in a few years.

I like the cryptic coatings bcgs I have

Just curious, I am asking out of complete ignorance. Are you mentioning barrel length because shorter barrels are harder on bcgs? Or just describing the build?
Posted on 2/11/24 at 5:06 pm to bigbuckdj
Just describing what I'm building, but yes the short barrels are generally harder on parts.
I was thinking of the piston kit because I'm a lefty and would rather the gas be bled off the front of the gun rather than my face.

Cool thanks for explaining.

Microbest seems good. Looks like there's only a few brands that other companies slap their names on.

LMT EBCG gets mentioned a lot. LMT (I think) makes their own BCGs.
Other than KAC, the hardest to get might be the FCD one. I tend to go either standard LMT phosphate or the Sionics NP3.

I got the heavy variable mass for my large frame, because I plan to suppress. After 0 rounds fired mine still looks brand new
without going KAC I probably couldn't have spent more, but that's not really the goal. LMT also makes great stuff. I was talking to craddock precision a month or so back, and I'm fairly sure he mentioned something about azimuth was who they were using in house.Posted on 2/18/24 at 9:05 am to MoarKilometers
Anyone run a Brownells LW BCG? They have them on sale and you can use their current 10% of coupon on it as well. The black nitrade is around $98.99 plus tax and shipping.

Ordered one for my 300BO pistol build. Plan on running it with an adj gas block.

I use a standard BCM but I like the LWRC one with the gas key being part of the carrier.
Posted on 2/18/24 at 4:27 pm to lsufan1971
I have a tin coated one on one of my backup ARs. I only have a couple hundred rounds thru it. I have no complaints

Ya, I thought about using the bootleg builder adjustable carrier because you don't have to remove it to make adjustments.

I have those types in my 2A balios lite setups but haven’t got to fool with them yet. I’m curious to see how they do in the 300 and 556 with a can.

anybody interested in a PSA Honey Badger?
