Welcome Our Newest Site Sponsor: Fathom Arms

I really hope Azimuth got these "right". Rubber City Armory had a helluva product with this, if their CS and QA/QC and material suppliers had been worth a darn. I have been looking for a quality QPQ BCG for some time sense then.

Do you know if Azimuth cuts chips and dips, or do they just cut chips and then farm the parts out to be dipped by someone else?

Azimuth has been a very reputable company and have not proven otherwise. I have full faith in them and we will be working together for many years to come. On this BCG and future products.

Nitride is done in house, I believe.

Pick up our BCG and try it out! :)

Nitride/QPQ has been used and proven in the handgun world forever, and I truly believe this technology is the future for rifle components. Do some research and you will soon be as impressed as I am. I think if Fathom Arms keeps up their current QC they could be one of the leaders of this emerging new industry and I wish them nothing but success in the future. Their products are impressive and I hope to purchase some soon :D

Just prefer the NiB for cleaning ease, if you did make one you'd have 1 sold already.

Nitride makes cleaning a breeze too! It's not remotely as porous as Phosphate. The finish is very slick, but the oil doesn't run off as easy as NiB. Kind of a middle ground in terms of slickness.

Thanks for the info I will keep you guys in mind for the next build I get going. Have a spare PSA lower laying around that needs some 300BLK goodness.

Anytime! What length barrel are you gonna run on that .300blk?

Thinking 11.5" or 8" but I guess that is everyone's dilemma now a days. I handload so shooting the 8" unsupressed wouldn't be an issue as I could play with loads to get it cycling correctly. At the same time 300BLK seems like its becoming more mainstream so factory ammo is more of an option than it has been in the past so the 11.5" may be the way to go if I just want to be lazy and purchase factory.

Yep. I've built a few 8" and a few 10" 300blks. The 8" cycled great suppressed and unsupressed with factory loads. You shouldn't have an issue going 8" besides how loud it is unsupressed. Felt like I was flash banging myself!

Welcome aboard fellas. Always nice to find another source.

[velocity2006]

Yeah I have shot both 8" and 11.5" versions. They both had Ferfrans brakes with the shroud on them so the blast wasn't bad on the ones I shot. I am a bigger guy and with my grip the 8" just might be too small for me, it was more maneuverable, but the 11.5 was defiantly a better fit for my size. Luckily my wallet isnt allowing for purchase of a barrel quite yet so I still have time to decide. Just dumped about 600 into my long range rifle so my wallet needs time to recover.

Welcome!

Awesome! Welcome!
I'll be hitting your site shortly.

Our enhanced BCGs will now have rounded gas keys. It gets rid of the sharp corners that can cause gouging or uneven wear inside the upper receiver. Plus it is pleasing to the eye!

Awesomeness right there.

I've seen some awesome reviews thus far on your BCG, and since it's pictured, an awesome one from Chris Tran.
