Which BCG would you pick?

[JGifford]

This Hodge AU-MOD 2 is getting more hype than Downton Abbey.

With good cause. I can't wait to have one. It's all that, so to speak. Very impressive and well thought out.

I run Colt, FN, or BCM BCGs in my rifles.

The Sharps looks interesting, mainly the S7 bolt. When they first launched the Realia-bolt, the price was steep. Now that they are "on sale" for $80, the bolt itself might be worth it. I'm not sure the design will really help reduce failures, but the S7 tool steel construction is appealing (supposedly 75% stronger, etc.)

I chose BCM, of the three listed. You really can't go wrong there.

I also have a LaRue BCG and a WMB NiB-X, I absolutely love the WMD!

BCM

Instead of starting a new thread, can you coat a mil spec phosphate BCG like the BCM? I know they use to offer the ionbond and I let someone talk it outta mine.

Could I send one to be QPQ'd or other treatment? Would this mess with the original heat treatment?

Gotta QPQ it from the get-go because of the chrome lining.

I've heard of people getting a BCM NiB coated. I wouldn't though, would be afraid of the tolerances being thrown off.

I picked up a PSA full auto nickel boron bcg for $119
Very nice look and feel, great quality, runs great and stays cleaner, easier to clean, was $119 not too bad

UBCG FTW

Looks Familiar but puts my photos to shame :D

How are you liking the UCWRG so far?

[Soisauss]

I don't know if this is really a brand x is better than brand z. There are a lot of BCG's out there with proven track records. Personally, I'd run the BCM or the UCWRG because I've run both before (No experience with the Sharps) and not over think it. What it boils down for most of us is price.

What this guy said. Hell, even psa premium bcg is good to go, and I have several psa bcg and they perform flawlessly.

It's what your wallet allows I suppose.

NOTA. If I did another DI build it would be LWRC's one piece BC, hands down. My last build I went with the WMD. http://www.f3tac.com/lwrci-di-bolt-carrier-group-assy/

I do love when LWRCi's employees chime in and suggest something nobody wants.

SAI is also doing a 1-peice. Except the gas-key isn't roll-pinned on or whatever. It's actually ONE piece.

Other than a bolt break, how often are people actually getting malfunctions due to the Carrier itself?

$340 for a 1 piece BCG is rather steep for possibly minimal gains.

I don't think there ARE any gains to be had with it.
