Dr. Carter G. Woodson, “History shows that it does not matter who is in power or what revolutionary forces take over the government, those who have not learned to do for themselves and have to depend solely on others never obtain any more rights or privileges in the end than they had in the beginning.”

Well, that escalated quickly...
Now I have or have ordered: a Centurion F-15 lower, a stripped/blem BCM upper, a 16" BRT Optimum MPR barrel (with gas block, tube, and Covert Comp) a BRT left side marked BCG. I swear last month I told my wife I needed another AR like I need a hole in my head.

Guessing you bought it all at close to the top of market price as well if you bought recently.
You not only bought stuff you didn't 'need' - You paid a hell of a premium to buy it all.
You got to pat yourself on the back twice at least.

Prices have dropped and I did not pay much more than what equal quality parts have run for the past 4 years or so.Guessing you bought it all at close to the top of market price as well if you bought recently.

A "hell of a premium" is not really accurate, but I appreciate your viewpoint.

Finished all of my last minute shopping a good 6mos before the last election and have a good grasp on what prices used to be then and for most of the time Trump was in office.
Not sure what you found that has dropped back down to those price levels and seriously doubt prices will ever get that low again.
In my opinion the Trump years (in office) truly were the 'buy it cheap and stack it deep' years.
Good luck with your upcoming build as your parts all arrive sir.

Not going to lie. I DID take mine to a gunsmith many years ago and have him fix the turd of a trigger. Not sure exactly what he did as zero parts were swapped (positive of this) but damned if that guy did not perform a miracle. Smooth as glass and a consistent 3 1/4lb break every time. Zero reliability issues with mil primers / ammo...
The stock trigger (after having been 'fixed' by that gunsmith) feels better than the nice adjustable and reduced weight spring setup I have for the same lower.

I was thinking more of grinding the sear block. I'm in the middle of a 1903 Springfield project that would have been child's play if someone had not modified it.

Any BCG from a reputable company is most likely gtg; e.g. BCM, Colt, LMT, DD, Sionics, SOLGW, Centurion, etc.
As long as it meets the specs, e.g. Car 158, HP/MPI, staked, etc.
Watch some SOTAR videos and you will get a good idea what to look for.
My new go to for BCGs is the Sionics NP3 variant. The NP3 holds up well, slicker, and Sionics has excellent staking and uses OCKs screws.

How does the group feel about LANTAC BCGs?
