Credit should be given where credit is due. (Even Olympic has some good stanless barrels.) Once Colt was all the rage. Then RRA. Then CMMG. Then LMT. Then BCM. It's worse than a 17 year old girl with a credit card at Nordstrom. Just because once company has a good product does not detract from the honest accomplishments of another company. List my a___.
Credit should indeed be given where it is due. Most here would agree with you.
The problem with BM and others is that the standards are a moving target.
When you say ramps have been standard for some time, you would need to quantify that. I have seen Patrolman's Carbines with and without them as recently as a year ago. Multiple samples. You can get them both ways, as what they assemble depends on who the buyer is, or what they have in stock.
BM does indeed produce 1/7 barrels, but 1/9 twist remains the norm.
Few who know and understand the guns would say that they have "steadily improved." BM may be bringing desirable features to market with greater frequency, but the nuts and bolts of the gun are the same. They work better for some, less for others. They are what they are.
If you like yours, enjoy it, and shoot well.
Recommend you spend a good deal of time reading the knowledge base threads and stickies.
