    FYI for those looking for one:

    I put an order in for the Enhanced Carrier back in December (maybe it was earlier Jan) from LMT when they were showing in stock....of course I ended up backordered with all the madness, but I was told by LMT that they don't expect any new stock (for the E-Carriers) to be available until July 1st!

    It will be interesting to see if I get the new one though...

    Id like to avoid buying the whole BCG.

    I will also say, you do yourself a disservice by not gettin their enhanced Bolt as well. It was the only BCG to complete the PiP testing.

    I was told May a few weeks back so things are obviously changing.

    The bes parts of the bolt are the Carpenter AerMet material, the enhanced extractor with springs that are far less stressed than the standard spring, the relief cuts in the lugs as well as the slightly larger diameter at the base of the lugs, and this...the relieved lug opposite the extractor allowing for optimal loading of all lugs greatly reducing the stress of the lugs opposite the extractor where 90% of the AR-15 bolts break.



    That combined with the Carrier that has a lengthened cam track allowing for longer lockup times allowing the chamber pressure to signifcantly drop, redesigned pas portin allowing pressure in the piston to be metered properly, which allows for proper acceleration of the carrier and also reduces fouling, as well as the sand cuts in the rails, and you have one of the best BCG's out there. Heres a good pic showin the cam track

    The reason I just want the carrier is due to the reports of malfunctions in sbr's.

    I want it for a suppressed 11.5"
