Greetings!
This will be my second post and my first AR build "problem".
Ordered LMT complete upper from a dealer here.
This is what I got.

Thats definatly not an LMT BCG. LMT does not include BCG or charging handles with their uppers. So if you didn't pay extra for those then just take them back and order a good BCG. If you did pay extra for them, i'm sorry, Grant can stake that for you or you could do it yourself if you feel up to it. Personally i would return it regardless and get the real thing. good luck man

Looks like a CMT/STAG BCG to me.


I emailed that dealer already early this afternoon, have not heard anything from them yet.

There's always the telephone.

I think LMT uppers are sold w/o BCGs. Were you told you were sold an LMT BCG?

Thank you guys...

I think I am learning a lesson now.

On their ordering page, it says "Optional Bolt Carrier Group & Charging Handle"
so I thought it is a LMT BCG.
However, I just checked, I found out on the lower part it says"(CMT Bolt carrier group and charging handle package is available as an option, see above)...

I guess I ended up did get what I have ordered.

A LMT upper and CMT BCG...

very upset now but I can only blame myself for my carelessness...

Lesson learned...

Defenitly not the worst thing ever. If you get into ARs you'll buy tons of upgrades and newer bcg's and all kinds of stuff. Send that BCG to somebody like G&R Tactical and he will get it up to snuff for you. It might not match the hot new LMT that you will probably upgrade to, but could become a very steady spare for a carbine class. I think i've replaced every single part now on my AR and some things 2x over. Most of the time i have to convince myself that there is some reason to upgrade and you have a ready made excuse!

enjoy your rifle
