Ok then lets compair it to the DD uppers we have all been drooling over.
Very nice product. And BCM's prices have always been reasonable.
1. Is it a slightly, perhaps very slightly, heavier profile than the DD lightweight?
2. Doesn't the DD come with the FSB pins loose so that the user can put on his preferred rail foreend? I may be wrong, but in the pic it looks like the BCM ones have the FSB solidly pinned.
3. Who makes BCM's hammer forged barrels? I think it was explained on another thread that DD has their own hammer forging machine and makes their own, while FN makes the hammer forged barrels for Centurion and Noveske. But I have not heard whether BCM has their own hammer forge machine or if another company makes the barrels for them. Anyone know?

So what are the cons of the LW barrels? Just heating up slightly quicker than the full weight counterparts?
