    !4.5 Middy build Question?

    I'm just about ready to order my upper for my latest build. I'm looking at the Bravo Company 14.5 EAG midlength. The hammer forged barrel is suppose to be more accurate and last longer than the barrel they use in their other uppers.
    So What is the word of the 14.5 upper?
    1) Go with the EAG? http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-E...cm-uh-eag1.htm

    2) Order the regular Bravo 14.5 Middy

    3) Wait there is a better choice.

    How much do you shoot? BCM barrels are all high quality and pretty accurate so I am not sure you would see that much of a difference in accuracy. If you are doing thousands of rounds a month you might get the benefit of the longer life of the CHF. But I get the feeling that if this was the case, you wouldn't need me or anyone else here telling you this, you would already know. So I say, save the money, get the cheaper upper, buy some rounds and go shoot it.

    Question is do you need all the stuff that comes with the EAG or do you already have some of the stuff laying around.

    $779 Standard Middy upper with Larue 9.0 rail
    $149 BCG
    $48 Charging handle
    $119 Troy Rear sight
    $41 SCAR Pannels
    $8 Slip 2000 ewl
    $7 Slip 2000 725

    =$1151.

    Now if you are going to go to one of the EAG classes then I would get the EAG upper you get a $100 discount. Now the price difference is $24 to get a Hammer Forged Barrel. I say if the EAG is the configureation you want then I would get it over the standard BCM product if you need to add all the other stuff to it.
