Bcg's and AWB

[Triple D]

All,

With the possible upcoming ban on "assault rifles", how will bcg's be viewed? Will they continue to be available at decent prices or will they be in limited supply and the prices be astronomically high? I see a lot of people going crazy on other sites clamoring for parts and can't help but wonder why ppl would pay 300% markup. Do they know something that I don't; I wasn't a black rifle owner during the first ban.

I'm under the impression that lowers and magazines will be limited by pre ban status should another ban be implemented.

Thoughts?

Re: Bcg's and AWB

First, think positive, there is no current ban.
Just because the liberals use a tragic event to promote their anti-American cause doesn't mean it will happen.
It sickens me that so many assume it is a done deal.

Second, BCG's were in short supply before all of the hoopla.
Short supplies don't generally provide for lower prices.

Third, I don't even want to entertain how what part will be treated.
It is just stupid to speculate that way.

There is no use in speculating what will be in any pending legislation. The only thing along those lines to focus on is defeating it. Period. No compromises, no give and take.

Time to draw a line in the sand.

No to any further restrictions of any kind.

Nothing has happened yet. BCG is an outstanding company. I say, order one and wait until they fill the order. If they will do it. They sure make a good tool.

I believe he means Bravo Company Manufacturing (BCM).

Everyones entitled to a brainfart once in a while right? If you feel you need a backup bcg by allmeans get one. I would place it through a company to avoid inflated panic prices though.

Re: Bcg's and AWB

I'm good for all of my current builds, snagged a few NiB bcg's last week. I was just curious if I decided to have a new upper build in the future. There's no way in hell I'd pay 350$ for a palmetto state bcg, but some ppl are.

Yup no ban. People grow a pair and don't give up so easy. The more people keep ranting this shit the more people are going to panic.

Re: Bcg's and AWB

Most companies advertise the upper assembly on internet for $499.00 to get consumers attention, but BCG/CH not included. It becomes very popular and it's very easy to put together an upper with some basic tool. Now, we got ton of upper without BCG in the market and I don't know how many manufacturers that actually make their own BCG.
I've see some of almost complete rifle for sale, the guy called it "90% AR-15" because he can't find BCG.

And they are a phenomenal company. I bought an upper from them for my first build and they sent all this extra swag and stuff with my order.

Here here!

I'm trying to get my hands on either a JP enhanced bolt or a Rainier thunder bolt using Carpenter A-158 steel.

Re: Bcg's and AWB

Ok I fail to see were having a BCG for every rifle is a big let down if you have at least one? It doesn't change your headspace it is just the carrier. I have 2 carriers and the only reason for the second one is I bought an AAC upper that came with a second one. It takes 2 minutes to swap them out and I can only shoot one at a time.

Oh crap! Yep, meant Bravo Co. Sorry about that. I'm going to hear about this for a while from some buddies of mine. Thanks for the understanding Snyper762 and Merry Christmas.

This is what we all will be doing that only have one BCG like me right now.
But the reason for having one for each rifle, is that you have one for each rifle

Makes it complete and ready to go ya know?

Im trying to build another AR but Im just going to forget about it until all the retards quit paying crazy prices or their wives make them sell it off because he spent the mortgage payment on a panic buy

If you have multiple bolt rifles would you be content swapping the bolt from rifle to rifle as you go?

 

[TGagnon]

Re: Bcg's and AWB

Actually that isn't a fair representation of what I am saying. A bolt carrier has no affect on head space. On a normal factory bolt action rifle I would not feel comfortable but on my personal rifles I do feel comfortable as I can check and adjust my head space just fine. On a BAT action I would have no problem dropping a bolt from another BAT action of the same model into mine. Like I said your statement is not a great argument to the point I am trying to make. A BCG is a critical part that does not affect the head space of the firearm so can be swapped between firearms of the same model (AR15)without worry.

Re: Bcg's and AWB

Understood, and I follow and agree with what you're saying. My response is based on where you're looking at the obvious mechanics, most are looking at the convenience of it (which is why I cut your quote where I did).

 

[Triple D]

Re: Bcg's and AWB

Are you talking about using the same bolt carrier or the bolt carrier group between rifles?

 

[TGagnon]

Re: Bcg's and AWB

just bolt carrier. Majority of my rifle barrels come with a matched bolt. However my Daniel Defense 556 barrel head spaces off the same bolt as my 300AAC blackout upper. Because of that I use the same bolt carrier group and bolt in both of these uppers.

This guy gets it. We must stand up together as a community and say no. No further, no more.
