BCM 14.5" Midlength Upper Receiver Group review is up

**gt_mule** · 5 April 2010, 17:41

I've got my own requirements for the rest of the upper, but I would love to be able to buy just the barrel.

I can't seem to find these any where? These out yet?

**Stickman** · 6 June 2010, 19:51

They have been out for awhile, but tend to sell out quickly. Check out Bravo Company USA (hit the link on the right of the board) and you should find if they are currently in stock or not.

Thanks Stick, I was looking in the wrong area.

Have you had a chance to shoot this combo yet?

One mag only, unfortunately. Day job has been kicking my ass lately. Probably won't be until July now.

My one mag was awesome though, and I topped it with a new Eoturd XPS to try out. Once I get it zeroed I'll be hitting a 3-gun match to try it out.

I have one of these coming. I plan to get it out on one of our 110 degree days and do some comparisons against a 14.5" carbean upper.

I'm going to runs some head to head full auto strings with both carbean and the middy to see if I can feel the smooth.

Rob,

You will feel the difference, but how much people feel it is heavily based on how in tune they are with their weapon.

**Lancelot** · 14 June 2010, 20:23

One of these showed up on my door step today. The only difference in it and the one Stick tested is that it does not have the Lite rail, it has the OmegaX 9 rail. (Sorry no camera. Guess it didn't happen.)

It is on a BCM lower with a MIAD and a CTR. It balances out really well. I have no idea how soon I'll get to shoot it. Hopefully the end of the week.

Lancelot,

You are going to love it. Try running it with a H or even H2.

**Lancelot** · 15 June 2010, 20:51

The BCM lower has an H in it.

BCM 14.5" Midlength upper with PWS FSC Compensator.
BCM BCG.
BCM Gunfighter 4 charging handle.
DD Omega X 9 rail.
Troy folding rear sight, marked BCM.

Furniture is a Magpul CTR and MIAD in FDE. Rails are covered in Magpul XTM's in FDE.
No accessories on the rails yet.

The gun points and swings remarkably well. I look forward to shooting it. Soon, I hope......

My upper showed up yesterday. It came with a lo pro gas block under a DD light 12 rail, Gunfighter CH, and a PWS whatever thingy. Unfortunately the brake is permed, but I can work around that. I'm probably not going to run the Gunfighter CH since I like nose to CH shooting.

I was hoping to run it head to head with a Colt M4, but the brake makes it an apples and oranges comparison.

**Stickman** · 17 June 2010, 18:33

I shoot NTCH with the MOD 4 and have no trouble....

**markm** · 17 June 2010, 18:49

It just feels funky. I've never warmed up to that big latch. I was sent the Mod 4. Iraqgunz has the big latch that you can manipulate from the future, it sticks out so far!

**markm** · 18 June 2010, 15:03

Got some images of this creation. Seems as though it will balance well with carbine or rifle stock. As soon as my sights show up, I'll find out for sure.
