    Maybe so these days, but they didn't use to be right? Who makes their own barrels anymore, DD, Noveske, KAC, Colt? I think the QC companies provide is where the quality outshines the ordinary. Bcm does a superb job of shipping a quality product, no question there!

    Edit: FN makes barrels too of course.

Has anyone heard of reverse engineering? The AR15, like the 1911, is not complicated. You don’t need to pay an arm and a leg to get one thats worthy of clearing your way from your mom’s basement to the kitchen.

    I served, overseas, with an MOS that primarily involved kicking doors in. The only weapon systems I truly liked were the M24 and the 240B. The M9 was alright as well. All of my AR’s were hit or miss and they were all Colt. The 110 made by Jesus, I mean KAC, was a damn nightmare to try and shoot consistently well at distance. Who makes it matters significantly less than people think. I have two BCM’s, and neither blow my doors off. The two times I’ve called them I’ve been less than impressed with the attitude on the other end of the phone.

    I would love to run and gun, swing a kettlebell and shoot an at unknown distance with half of the people on here spending their entire days arguing about the damn TDP. I’ve actually invited one of the loudest mouths on here to do so and never heard back. Shoot more, write less. A properly staked bolt carrier won’t matter nearly as much as a sub 8 minute mile when you need it.

    I was under the impression Colt outsourced their barrels. I could easily be wrong.

    Noveske outsources their barrels. PacNor for SS and to a hammer forger for the chrome moly.

    Oh, come on, we've got a couple of alphabet spewing humble braggers on board here, are you going to call them all out?

    For sure, this much of what he said is true:

    Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President... - Theodore Roosevelt, Lincoln and Free Speech, Metropolitan Magazine, Volume 47, Number 6, May 1918.

    Every Communist must grasp the truth. Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party Mao Zedong, 6 November, 1938 - speech to the Communist Patry of China's sixth Central Committee

    No, the bragging about what you say you did has nothing to with the thread. Also throwing Gods name around. Come on man, are you 20 years old? There are good solid rifle and parts out there. BCM from my expericance is substandard as well as their customer service. Maybe. Got a lemon. It happens. Also, if you ever make it up to Mn. I will shoot with you CPM. I will even provide the ammo. Just try being a little humble.

    When you're done saying what you're saying, stop saying it.
