    I'm also wanting a rail and keep hearing about the DD Omega. On Grants site there are several options for rails on the BCM uppers. Any particular you guys recommend for it? http://www.gandrtactical.com/cgi-bin...ategory%3DBCOM
    Anything you buy from The Bravo Company will be a quality product. They are helpful and honest and will quickly ship your order.

    Bravo Company USA = BCM.

    The Omega is a great rail at a great price. This would be my first choice.

    Thanks Brad, I'll probably be going with the Omega after all the talk I keep hearing about it.
    What I was wondering about BCM though is just who they are compared to the other makers. I knew BCM stood for Bravo Company. I just haven't heard much about them and want to know more about them before I swipe my card.

    My BCM 16"M4 from G&R is on the brown truck somewhere here in Tulsa, on its way to my office somtime this morning . The rest of the goodies I ordered from Bravo Company will be here Tuesday.

    LMT

    Resale value is much higher. You can sell used LMT uppers for the cost of a new BCM upper. Plus LMT has been around much longer which means less risk when it comes to possible warranty issues in the future. There is more of a chance of LMT being around in the future then BCM simply due to statistics. This is not a knock on BCM, its just a fact of business.

    I have also had amazing experience with LMTs customer service. I bought a used rear LMT BUIS and it would not tighten down onto one of my rails. I am sure the rail was out of spec but I called up LMT, they sent me a UPS prepaid shipping label, I sen the sight in and they sent me a brand new one.

    The specs between the two uppers aren't so different that any average shooter will ever notice. And usually not any experienced shooter either.

    I like BCM and they sell quality stuff, but I like well established companies better if I had to only choose between the two and couldn't have both. Not a knock on BCM, I own one of their 16" uppers and plan on getting an 11.5" upper when they are available, it's just how I view it.

    It's a win-win either way if your choices are between LMT & BCM.

    I would buy from either company without hesitation. Paul from Bravo is certainly one of the good guys in this industry.

    If you do the research, and compare the features of an LMT and a BCM upper, there is no difference ~ the only difference is the lazer engraved branding, and the fact that all the parts of a BCM upper are parkerized before assembly. Dollar for dollar, the BCM is the better deal, IMHO.

    I was ready to pull the trigger on an LMT upper, but decided to wait till the BCM's were availible. After all, it is going on an LMT lower. I only wish that BCM would produce their own lowers as well . In my mind, BCM produces alot less product than LMT, so I equate that to a little more time to pay attention to detail. And after all I have read about the attention Paul @ BCM pays to detail, I could not justify the extra $35 for the LMT name. But, if the BCM's were not going to be availible for a while, I would be receiving an LMT upper within the next hour instead of a BCM ~ Brown should be here any minute

    BCM lowers may be available this year from what the website says.
