    I sure like products from The Bravo Company but for Grant or anyone posting that The Bravo Companys AR uppers being better then LM&Ts uppers I sure would not go that far.

    Ok, I took my Colt 6920,ColtMT6400c (had the barrel threaded for a FS A2 FS and FSB with a Bayo lug,and M4 stock installed ) and a BCM M4 16 inch upper on a Stag lower,and a LMT M4 16 inch upper on a RRA lower out and ran a bunch of assorted ammo through them . they all functioned perfectly ,upon close inspection the Colt's and the BCM had a better look and finish and when we dissasembled them to clean them again the Colt's and the BCM looked better internaly (less burs,machine marks and nicer feed ramps ). the LMT is a year old with maybe 1000 rounds through it and the BCM is 2 years old with maybe 3000 rounds through it,the 6920 was the newest at 4 months with 400 rounds and the MT 6400C is 5 or 6 years old with maybe 5 or 6 thousand rounds through it . IMHO if given the choice of LMT or BCM I would pick the BCM every time. Love the Colt's but they are no better than the BCM . Paul doe's every thing so right ,with such attention to detail that he just has NO compitition . LMT is good and if you never saw or handled a BCM you would never know just how good it is . Paul's attention to detail and refuseal to use any thing but the very best parts put's the BCM above all others . can't wait to get 2 middy's from him as soon as they are available .

    That is a good report on the quality of finish's. on the AR uppers you own now did the BCM shoot better groups then the LM&T? Did the LM&T have failures to feed or failures to extract? Did the LM&T show more breach wear the the BCM?

    When someone says something looks better that s one item, so I guess the question remains just how much better does the BCM upper make a rifle shoot and preform then the LM&T upper?

    I said they All functioned perfectly,and that to me means no FTF,FTE or any stopage of any kind. with Eotech and Iron sights the accuracy was about the same . if I were to test for accuracy I would use a scope and bags on a bench. I may try that with some Black hills blue box 75 grain and an IOR scope when it cools down in october. the fact that BCM takes the extra effort to use the correct pins to attach the FSB and parks under the FSB let's me know they are not willing to take any short cuts to pump product out the door as fast as possible. add to that BCM made no uppers for over a year because they were not satisfyed with the barrel steel avalible and refused to comprimise even the slightest untill they were satisfyed tells me they are commited to building the best . god knows how much money they could have made if they weren't so picky. ya gotta respect a company that is willing to set a high standard and stick to it . they are commited to excellance and deliver a product I can trust and be proud to own. my spelling sucks ,but you get the idea.

    Are you in some small way implying in your posting that LM&T are putting their uppers together with second or third quality steel bbls? And they LM&T are not commited to providing the highest of quality in their uppers?

    The Bravo Company is a very high quality Company with high quality products but as of this posting I have not heard or read that they The Bravo Company was a supplier to any US Military Dept. or branch of military Service as the LM&T Company have been for many years.

    Correct me if I am wrong on this item.
