Has anyone tried a new BCM MK 2 upper running a can? Does it work as advertised? Looking for a new 16” set up to run a Knight’s QDC 556 can. Thanks

I haven't seen much out there yet surprisingly. I'm also interested to know but there was a lot more chatter prior to their release and not much feedback afterwards.
The MK2 discussion starts around ~10:15

If you look at the MK2 vs a standard upper there's no doubt it's milled out differently/deeper for the gas track. I'd say it certainly helps mitigate gas but it's not going to eliminate it completely either FWIW.
Anybody else have anything to add?
Bringing this back from the dead as it's relevant to my interests. Has there been any other feedback or musings about gas/blowback mitigation with the MK2 uppers? As someone else mentioned, there was a lot of hype surrounding these but I haven't really heard anything since their release. Curious that they're still making/using standard uppers with all the benefits they touted these as having over them. Was it all marketing hype, or are these a significant enhancement to the platform and undervalued?
I should have paid attention a few weeks ago when I had a chance. I'll have another chance sooner than later, and I'll report back then.
