    Best BCG Coating?

    I don’t like the phosphate BCG in my 6933 that’s 100% suppressed. It gets gummed up and slows down very easily. 200 rounds into a range session I can feel it. Is there a coating out there that doesn’t have any compromises? I considered NiB, but the internet says it’s a no-go now.

    Nib is complete shit. The most worthless gun part finish ever.

    The only other finish (besides Phosphate) that's worth a look is NP3. Really, in my opinion, Phosphate with froglube works beautifully. But NP3 is slicker, and still holds lube pretty good.

    Suppressed 6933 owner here. Since it's 100% suppressed, you should stick with the phosphate Colt BCG and get a BRT EZTune suppressed gas tube. It will smooth it out and the internals won't get gunked up as quickly.

    I have a couple SIONICS Np3 BCGs, everything else is phosphate from Colt, BCM or SOLGW. Stay from NiB, Failsafe BS, etc.

    I’ll second the Sionics NP3 for suppressed. Runs filthy and so easy to clean.

    Sionics NP3 on my suppressed upper. I also have a Cryptic Coatings mystic black on a to-be-suppressed upper.

    I’ve not had any issues with NiB.

    YMMV

    Same. I've got a single NiB BCG, in a 308 no less. Been fine in a couple thousand rounds, which isn't really all that many admittedly. It's discolored, of course, but it's certain still plenty smooth. Wouldn't buy another though, and certainly not one for a standard AR, just based on overall reputation.
