    PK buys the stripped carriers and stakes the key. They also add a non-chrome cam-pin.

    I seem to remember Sully saying (in the last armorers class I was in) that they were made under contract by DPMS.

    Young's says they use red loctite instead of staking, which they say will last 20,000 rounds. If you buy it from someplace like Spike's Tactical, they will stake it themselves. It seems like a no-brainer to me, loctite or not.

    I can assure you that the NM M-16 BCG from Young IS staked and done very well.

    Where did you purchase yours? Most of the quality dealers stake them before they ship, young doesn't stake them.

    Regarding the red locktite issue, it is weakened by heat, bcg's get hot= locktite doesn't work.

    i bought one from young directly a while back, thinking it was staked--it wasn't. add the cost of a moaks, or sending it off for staking to the price of one.

    As it has already been pointed out, if you order from places like Spike's or PK Firearms, they will stake it themselves. The NM BCG I bought from Spike's had Spike's logo on it and it was pretty well staked.
