BCM® 14.5" Carbine Light Weight Upper Group (NFA)
We will also offer the option with perm installed (non-NFA) A2X™ Flash Hider

These are in production now - .625" at FSB. First batch is small.




And the,
BCM® 16" SOCOM M4 Upper Group

http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/v/vspfiles/photos/BCM-URG-M4-16SOCOM-2.jpg

The SOCOM M4 profile is a mid weight profile barrel for the M4A1 Carbine. The flats milled under the handguards are for mounting of the M203. SOCOM requested the mid profile to better handle the volume of fire from their shooters. This profile is being adopted as a new standard for the M4A1 Carbine.


(A BCM 14.5" M4 SOCOM version is also in the works, ETA late summer)

Thanks for looking.
:)

The socom profile barrels have always interested me. Glad to see another option out there than the expensive colt versions.

Man, now I might have to hold out and wait for that 14.5 SOCOM barrel.

I don't particularly need another AR but you folks at Bravo Company keep putting out products that make me WANT another one. I really like the lightweight profile upper group!

As much as Im impatient Im going try to wait for some of these in the BFH barrels, and maybe some more rail configurations.


Next one, I think, will be a 14.5" middy with a DD 12.0 Lite and CHF barrel.

Did they say they will be offering these in CHF?

Thanks for the feedback!

Barrel profiles "in the works"

BFH, MID 16, LW, Fall
BFH, MID 14.5, Gov, late 2010

Std, MID 14.5, LW, later this summer
Std, M4 14.5, SOCOM, early fall
Std, 11.5, LW, Fall

The dates are ETAs. E= estimate = best guess = usually not exactly correct.

Thanks!

Excellent!

I dig the light one. I am a big fan of the Bushy Superlight profiles for a GP carbine. I have three I am running right now (one I am running quite hard). When it comes time for a new barrel, I guess I need to do some Fed paperwork as those 14.5s seem to be even better in the weight department.

I have a PWA lower that needs one of those 16" SOCOM uppers :D

How about a SOCOM profile 14.5" Mid with perm attached Battle Comp when their 1.5" model is available? That would finally get me interested in a gun with a perm attached muzzle device.

Are the Socoms uppers only or are barrels going to be available seperately?

Bravo,

Any plans on being able to get BCM uppers with the Battle Comp permanently attached? If so, tentative date?

I have a lot of AR's, but now that Bravo Company is coming out with the SOCOM 14.5 barrels, I now have to have one of those uppers. Will be looking for the new upper in late summer/early fall:D

Not to beat a dead horse, but is there any chance we'll see a BFH 12.5" ?

Yes, it is definately under consideration. But we would need the 1.5 version to perm mount to a 14.5" barrel to make it a non-NFA.
I think those are coming in fall ?

I realize you cannot please everyone all the time. That being said, your company is offering some great configurations & seems to come close to many folk's idea of the ideal barrel.

My ideal would be:

Perm-attached AAC 18T brake on a 14.5" lightweight w/ mid-length gas system & a Wylde or 5.56 chamber.

I have no need for the cuts to accomodate a 203; I doubt many do. Thx again.

perhaps a LW version too :D

14.5 middy + 1.5 BattleComp= ordering one now.
DHart
10-12-10, 16:39
Word is that BCM has ordered BattleComp 1.5's and when they get them in, they will be offering the option of 14.5 w/BattleComp 1.5. SO, that is likely to be happening fairly soon! Yee haw.

Do you guys have any plans on making an A1 profile rifle barrel? It seems that no one is making quality A1 rifle barrels these days.
