    There is NO WAY you wouldn’t hear Boogaloo Bob’s footfalls if he were still eating Cheeto’s. No way.

    I'm approaching 10,000 rounds with my PSA rifle with the original stock BCG. I run the rifle hard using cheap Russian steel ammo, I don't do bench shooting with this. Out of the entire original BCG assembly, only the firing pin broke around the 7,000 round mark, the bolt is still holding strong. One day I did notice a ding on the gas key where it meets the gas the gas tube. You can see it in the pictures. I don't know how it got there but it does not affect reliability. This thing has been running like a champ since my first day of taking it out. Of course, sample size n=1, others have different experiences.

    Apparently you have little experience sneaking crunchy food while in close proximity to your wife or kids. It can be done.

    Is PSA QCing what they get from tool craft? The top tier manufacturers don’t make everything themselves, but do QC what they subcontract out. This is the difference.

    You had to shoot 10,000 rounds before you found out if you got a decent gun or not. With BCM, you don’t have to do that.

    How would they know if they did?

    I miss Iraqguns. This forum is no longer the same.

    I related my experience with Toolcraft (no issues) and PSA Premium (issues) BCGs honestly and without calling PSA garbage.

    I don't think anyone has praised Toolcraft and condemned PSA.

    I would expect the majority of folks here to recommend one or more brands from a short list before they recommended either PSA or Toolcraft.

    Yeah. We used to have higher standards, I guess. I would recommend Sionics or Forward Control Designs.

    His first BCG physical must have been to good to be true so it appears he had to do a second one: https://youtu.be/BUQZWepzy7Y
