BCM 14.5 LW carbine

Looks really nice! The brown truck just dropped off my 14.5LW middy a couple of hours ago. Can't wait to shoot it tomorrow.

Thanks man! After shooting a 14.5 middy, its all I want to shoot now noticeably smoother than a 16" carbine.

Oh yeah. It's going from sirloin to a great ribeye... I was shocked as how light a 14.5 middy was after using a buddy's rifle years ago. It's pretty much my favorite configuration now when coupled with an A5 system. It's as though you're shooting a hot rimfire.

I ordered the one with the C4 rail on it and it still feels very light compared to my 16in.

What A5 buffer are you using? I tried it on my A5 lower and it wouldn't lock back 100%

I like my 14.5" LW carbine too.

Standard... What ammo were you running?

PMC and tula, which I know are under powered, but I want to tune it for the cheap stuff and I know it'll handle 5.56 pressure ammo too. What ammo do you run with the standard buffer?

I'm using AE 55g .223 with my mid gas H buffer and FA BCG. So far 150 rounds cycles perfect.

Right now, various LC head stamps between 10'-12' (M183 and M855), IMI 5.56, and some other 5.56. I don't even know if I have any .223 ammo right now. I should get a box or two of TULA or PMC and see what comes of it.

Hopefully I get to try mine out tomorrow!
