    If my memory serves me there are 3 different gen of bcg. Some body posted a nice pictorial showing the differences. Sorry I don't have time to dig them up or post a link fixing to go to work.
    Maybe some body will be nice enough to post a link to the pics.

    I've also head 9310 is a little stronger than C-158. Do you know if that's true?

    I've heard that, but also read that it's just a rumor, and it's actually more brittle than C-158.

    I know there have been multiple gens of the carrier, but what has changed with the bolt itself?

    Small things like bolt coating and lug reliefs.

    Oh, the coating wasn't always electroless nickel? Or it isn't electroless nickel anymore?

    Do you know 100% for a fact that LMT is using Aermet 100 for their bolts?

    Im not sure what grade Aermet since I belive there are different ones but in an email from LMT, yes they use Aermet. Thy did not specify. I asked if it was aermet and they confirmed, but that was all I got fromthe person I talked to.

    This was awhile so, so things could have changed but last i heard.

    Eta: that is just the enhanced bolts. Their standard are not aermet.

    If it's Aermet then it is more than likely Aermet 100. I wasn't aware that they were doing anything other than Carpenter 158.

    Do the LMT bolts last? If they last as long or longer than other bolts, they could be made out of polymer for all I care.


    That being said, I'll just stick with BCM BCG's for my daily drivers. I wouldn't mind having back up BCG's made by other manufactures though. I do have a BCG from Joe Bobs that uses a bolt made of 9310 but that is currently just a back up.

    Is this what KAC is using also?
