I've been unable to find an LMT S/A BCG to complete my build but have found a retailer with a F/A version in stock. Are there any problems using this in my S/A build?

I've been unable to find an LMT S/A BCG to complete my build but have found a retailer with a F/A version in stock. Are there any problems using this in my S/A build?
the heavier F/A M16 BCG is usually preferred over the Semi carrier. I have two BCM F/A BCGs and an LMT F/A BCG in my rifles, not a hiccup.
I wouldn't use anything BUT the F/A... even if I had to wait to get one.
Buy a BCM M-16 BCG and live a happy, happy life.....
These are the weight of BCG that Eugene Stoner originally designed this rifle to use. Each derivative of the semiauto version became lighter, causing greater and greater compromises in functional performance.
Now that installing one in a non-F/A has been decriminalized they're the only way to go.
Can I ask what the reasons are behind that? I've heard a few people say that, but I'd like to know why. Is it because you can run a standard carbine buffer and get proper operation with most ammo? FWIW, I use the F/A version in all my carbines because it seems to be recommended.
Or...I could search :)
Global Tactical has LMT M16 BCG in stock.
