I don’t think you will see those on sale, but...maybe at one point?
But seriously, $125 is a stellar price from a reputable company. Super friendly the couple times I’ve reached four to them. I’ve been going with Sionics NP3 recently, but otherwise would be buying these.
Looking for a better price is almost unnecessary, unless picking up a Toolcraft for $70-90 for a budget build or emergency backup.
10-4 never hurts to ask i always try to catch stuff on sale if possible
I have 1 Toolcraft CAGE code marked BCG I purchased from WC Armory that has given me great service. I would purchase another as a lower cost alternative before buying a PSA BCG again.
For anything but a budget build, I think Sionics hits a great price point with their phosphate BCGs, and they are quality parts.

cool so sionics and centurion seem highly recommended where do they compare to solgw and bcm
PSA's upper end BCG are toolcraft. I have a couple and they have worked flawlessly.
I feel like PSA's "poor quality" reputation on these forums is just ghosts from their past. A lot of posters spent really good money on a rifle from a 'known quality assembler' and they just won't let their egos down long enough to see you can get good AR parts from lots of places. I have a PSA premium BCG from 2013 that probably has 4,000 rounds under it. Looks fine and will continue to ride in my main match rifle. I also have one of their nitrided BCG's from 2018 that now has past 2,000 rounds and it is also running great.
To rebuff the common: "PSA has good suppliers but they don't get the same specs as other companies" myth; I decided to measure the gas port on two 'PSA' barrels. Because everyone on the forums thinks PSA has terribly huge gas ports. The 10.5 mike'd out to 0.073 and the 16" mid by FN had a 0.076 gas port. Not the smallest, but they definitely don't deserve the bad rap they get here.
A lot of people come to the forums expecting some well thought out scientific presentation on why brand X is superior to brand Y, and the reality is; the data simply doesn't exist. Theres so much more ego and myth than testing and data in the gun world. I feel like in every post I defend PSA I have to also enumerate that I carried a Colt for years and have a BCM in the safe. Im not a budget whore, but Ill save money on parts and spend it on cases of ammo if I can.
