Found the same stuff in my bca bcg around 1000 rounds. Cleaned it every 200 rounds to inspect and that stuff was not there. Then there it was like 30 of them behind the bolt on my last trip. The only thing I could think of was primers. Also firing pin and bolt face were extra dirty when I noticed. Would be very curries what you find in future with this upper. Great video 👍🏻

@@RTTGunsGearguns and women are similar in a few ways. There are good ones and bad ones, some have small issues that one can tolerate and overlook, some just need to be avoided at all cost, or, will cost you a lot of money and stress. Easy to find either that are fun to play with for a while, but not something youd like to keep around, let alone trust that it will perform when layin on your nightstand or pillow next to you 😂

Great video, also pretty sick intro. My only direct experience with BCA was a 7.62x39 upper about 6 years ago, it was absolute crap. Not where things broke, just didn't function more than 2-3 rounds at a time. Very bad machining and tolerances, and ended up replacing a few things to get it working properly. But that was just one, and was a while ago. I'd never have amazing expectations for something so cheap until after I try it out, but this seems pretty good on a very low budget.
@RTTGunsGear3 ай бұрын
I appreciate it Cody! Reno had some issues with his 7.62x39 BCA stuff as well recently. I don't have any experience with that caliber and BCA though. So far so good for me and 5.56 and 9mm stuff though. My carry pistol actually has a stainless BCA barrel in it. Thanks again!

im pretty much of the belief their 223/556 stuff is pretty much good to go, aside from QA, its the other stuff like x39, 458 socom etc that i see posts on FB and other places about. i have used 2 of their 300bo uppers, 223 wylde upper, 2 458 socom barrels and BCG's, a x39, and a 450 Bushmaster. Everything ran amazing after using the right spring and buffer combo, and havent had any issues with any of them. That being said, i dissembled and reassembled each one.. because i dont trust their QA. Are they a good value? yes, are they a good range toy and plinker? yes.. Not every AR availabe needs to be a duty grade AR.

Yeah I’m pretty sure they drill their gas ports to the “let’s make it super combat gassed for the weakest of steel case” specs My 16” mid length 223 wylde will still eject 223 brass to the 2-3 o clock with the geissele super 42 spring and h3 buffer I love it tho, it’s too gassed to ever have any cycling issues
@Rnemhrd3 ай бұрын
I think the firing pin has too much protrusion causing primers to pop where the pin strikes it. You need to check your spent shells. Some of the primers probably have little holes in them. the pin going in too fat will streatch the metal where the prmer strikes and that little piece will blow out. Bet they fit on the tip of the firing pin.

How is the accuracy? Before and after?
@RTTGunsGear3 ай бұрын
I didn't get into accuracy only because it didn't get worse as far as I can tell. I know it would be a bit of a journey. But if you go back to the first shots video and then the Gideon SFP scope video. The groups got tighter, but I also switched to a more stable shooting rest. Being the BOG tripod that it's clamped in, in this video. When I zeroed the scope that's on it in this video, the final group at 50 yards was a little over an inch. So it would be between a 2 - 3 in group at 100.
@POSminiracer3 ай бұрын
@@RTTGunsGear I feel like I've seen those first shots if they're within the last year to year and a half. Not getting worse/consistent works for me. I hear a lot of complaints or more like the same few complaints over and over about BCA but I never hear anyone complain about accuracy. I appreciate your honest expression of what you actually experience in your video's. Nice work. Thanks for the reply.

Those chunks look like pieces of primers. Uneven wear on the bolt face and barrel extension in conjunction with the chunks falling out make me think an out of spec bolt/firing pin, or both? Also potentially a poorly bedded barrel and headspace issues? Tough to say from pictures alone but I suspect the first BCG-related failures you'll see will be broken bolt lugs. *For the price* to have that amount of wear at 1000 rounds with ~400 being suppressed isn't horrible I suppose. Most guys who buy budget uppers probably won't put 1,000 rounds on it in their lives.

Not convinced these are anything special. I care far more about the quality of the manufacturing process and finish, than the methods themselves. BCA time and time again has released absolute garbage. I'd be really surprised if these outlasted button rifled nitride barrels from Faxon, Criterion, BA, etc etc.
