    Why Colt, when there is BCM? j/k

    Hi all. Haven't posted much here, but definitely not new to AR's, or guns in general. I am a prior service, current LEO, and a firearms instructor. I have 6 AR's (most are builds), and while none have let me down, I decided to get a BCM upper. After hearing all the kudos from an instructor last week, I decided to investigate and ended up buying an upper. It is a 14.5" with permanent A2X flash hider, and I also got the BCM BCG and CH. I received it in less than two days! This thing looks all business, and I can't wait to break it in! I hope to attend a carbine class in the spring, and will put several rounds through it in the meantime.

    I slapped it on an M4 lower I had laying around, just to play with it, and get a few pics. I will assemble it into its intended form, later tonight.

    So, who needs Colt, when you have a BCM....

    What's a Colt? BCM FTW!

    I have a Colt I went through the academy with but all of my serious social guns are BCM. One is a 11.5 and the other is a 16 middie.
    Only hits count......you can not miss fast enough to catch up

    That is really an amazing deal on that upper. I spent about $100 more having the same thing built a couple of months ago. Wish I would have waited.

    I know, I couldn't pass it up! I will prolly have a couple more BCM uppers, along with a lower or two, by next summer, if they produce what I think they are going to put out! Good stuff!

    BTW, I am going to put the rifle together mostly, in its intended form, here in a bit (need to make a store run to make party mix first ). I can take pics, if anyone cares....

    As do I. A stamped/engraved BCM like the Colt "C" next to the forge mark would be ideal.

    You guys are bitching about the little BCM logo when Colt is still putting the restricted to LE/Mil/Gov crap on their lowers?

    I don't believe I was bitching, can't I be entitled to my opinion?

    Yeah, I'm not a big fan of bright white logos, either. I just took a sharpie to mine, left it on over night, then wiped it off. Looks subdued now.
