Magpul vs. BCM "A5/Rifle" extensions
My Magpul rifle extension (10 position) arrived today. I had already procured BCM's version.
-BCM weighed 4.0oz, and the Magpul weighs 4.3oz.
-The Magpul appears to have a dry-film type coating inside. The BCM does not.
-The Magpul, as seen below, appears to be machined much more smoothly inside.
I am sure they will both perform their intended purposes, but the Magpul is likely to have less "scritching" noises.

I have found the BCM extensions to be much louder. "Scritching" is a very good word for it. :)
LMT still makes the best ones, in my opinion. If you want A5 length you can use their MWS extension, too. Dry film lube, very smooth ID, and drain holes.Will - Owner of Arisaka LLC - http://www.arisakadefense.com

Hopefully the Magpul ones will have a street price in the $30 range to stay competitive. It would put it right in the middle of BCM and LMT pricing.

I've purchased all mine from DSG Arms. They also take backorders.

Fit/finish, is it noisy compared to a generic tube, how's the finis h, how well is it wearing, do you give your gear a workout, etc...
It's billed as "maritime" quality, does it walk the talk?
Basically a review is what I'd like, I guess.There's no "Team" in F**K YOU!

I believe the shipping is free.
