    BCG relacement ?

    Can I just swap out? Really that simple?

    I have a BM, hope to soon own a CD - I was wanting to get a few spare parts and figured it would just be easiest to order a complete BCG and keep it handy.

    Simple, right?

    Yup, you can just swap em out. I'd stick with the full auto BCG's from Bravo Company or LMT. I bought 2 Bravo company FA BCG's as back ups. Very high quality!

    Grayson,

    BCM is indeed Bravo Company and is run by Paul Buffoni, a former Marine and one of the best guys and straight shooters you'd ever want to deal with.

    The FA BCG is preferred as it fully shrouds the firing pin (which the standard one doesn't) and it's extra weight tends to soften the recoil cycle a bit.

    That's what I've been wanting to know all this time but forgot to ask.

    Our own Grant of G&R also is a BCM dealer.

    I put a new BCM BCG in my LMT upper and it ran just fine at the rifle match yesterday.

    If you go with a protected firing pin bolt carrier (m16) I think you need to upgrade your hammer as well. The old standard unprotected bolt carrier was teamed up with a hammer having a notch cut-out. Does anyone have problems running a notch cut hammer and protected firing pin bolt carrier?

    Just a little piece of advice. If you are referring to bolt carrier groups- i.e. the bolt and carrier complete don't forget a good headspace gauge. Especially if you are mixing manufacturers.
