I'll add VSeven as another brand. They have a lightweight and a heavy duty version.

How is the bcm ranked in this? I am looking into the bcm mod 0 stock and may get the whole kit from them.
Do they hold up compared to the other brands listed?

BCM is very good quality. Need to replace my no name one with a few BCMs

BCM is great. All my rifles have LMT or BCM tubes. Both I believe are impact extruded 7075T6. Neither are forged but I think only Colts are forged. Before you say there are no forged buffer tube let me stop you. I was going to buy the forgings from a company to machine them myself for a part to sell. And the tube is known to be a forged part on a military M4. But I have yet to find anyone else who uses forged ones.

ALG claims their buffer tubes are forged and they are selling for $38 right now. I think BCM is 40

At the very least, having a decent brand name on it means that it passed through someone's idea of quality control at some point. Most companies that are known for having decent stuff won't sell complete crap.
I made the mistake early on thinking a buffer tube is a buffer tube. Now I using nothing but name brand tubes made from 7075 as others have mentioned. Worth the extra $$ and you save yourself a headache or two..
If you havent bought a tube yet, check out ours, Other than 6 posisitons vs 4, its a legit mil-spec tube.
