Since all the tools I ordered so far have arrived I decided to put them to use this morning.
My current AR's are 1) S&W M&P sport II with OEM trigger and Aimpoint pro, since I had the PRS stock on my BCM lower I also put the BCM QD endplate on my S&W.
2) Daniel Defense M4V11 PRO complete upper with BCM complete lower, the BCM lower has the PRS stock and Geissele SSA-E trigger installed. For optics it has the Vortec Viper 6.5-20 scope and magpul pro offset sights.
Last week I picked up a complete DD lower, and today I have a 16" BCM upper being delivered.
So getting to the point, I wanted the DD lower with the DD upper and needed to get the BCM lower ready for the new upper.
First thing I did was removed all three lowers and then all three buffer tubes, the PRS went on the DD lower and the BCM QD plate went back on the BCM lower with it's origanl tube back on.
The S&W I added the DD QD plate since it didn't have one from the factory. I was able to try out my auto center punch staking the BCM and S&W lowers, works very well for what it does.
Next I removed the SSA-E and installed it in the DD lower, and installed and SSA in the BCM. The stock BCM trigger felt much cleaner than my S&W trigger so I installed that in the sport II as well.
Tried out the PlastiXrevolution trigger tester, works as advertised.
I have the magpul front and rear BUIS here for the BCM and ordered a Vortec SPARC since it was on sale, I'll have to see if I like it or not.
The geissele trigger pins seem firm and in place, the BCM and S&W pins feel like they would start to slip back out easily. I currenty have the BCM pins with the BCM trigger in the sport II. Do most owners just leave them like that or is ordering Geissele pins pretty common for a more secure fit? I have the pins installed correctly.
I'm not a fan of the pins with the anti rotation modification but are they more preferred?
Again thanks for all the help guiding me in the right direction on the tools, I think this will be a good start and plan to pick up a KAC stripped lower next month since my local shop has some ans start slow and just assemble a complete lower.
When I start the upper I'll have more questions so I'll wait till then. Added some picks of the tools and the Sport and BCM trigger, the silver is the BCM for those that don't already know.
