I picked up a brand new LMT M4 Upper tonight that is complete less charging handle and bolt carrier. I have a spare charging handle but need to order a complete bolt carrier group. I looked at BCM and they have one for $139 by them or they have an LMT for $130. Is there any difference? Not that $9 is a big deal but is the BCM worth the extra money?

PS I got it CHEAP!!! So stoked!

Both are just fine. Last I checked (a couple days ago), the BCM was in stock, and the LMT wasn't. That makes the choice pretty easy for me ;)

As of today they are both in stock.

LMT uses MIM keys

BCM uses steel keys

that's the only difference, by accounts.

all the same, I almost always use LMT BCGs- i've used dozens of them and never had a single problem- so why change what works? i have used BCM and, more recently, Daniel Defense if LMT is out of stock.

they're all great BCGs.

Either will work. I prefer the BCM auto carrier vs the LMT. The bolt is what's important and both are good bolts.
