    Best AR-15/M16 Bolt Carrier Group For The Money…Who Ya Got??

    I’ve never had any problems with BCM bolts. I have an 11.5" BCM upper that I ran hard, eventually shot out the barrel. When I swapped in a new Daniel Defense barrel, the original bolt still looked great, though I retired it at that point. I bought that upper in 2014, and it started showing...

    Best AR-15/M16 Bolt Carrier Group For The Money…Who Ya Got??

    I have had more issues with BCM BCGs than any other brand. A total of 3 carriers going down, 1 in a BCM gun, and 2 carriers in other guns. All were SBRs, and all were leaky keys. BCM did replace them all after a lot of coaxing (1 time had to get Pat Rogers involved), but I will never buy...

    KAC vs Radian Model 1 vs JP enterprises ctr-02

    I’d also recommend the Ridgeline Defense LPR-15. I’ve owned all three rifles you mentioned, and the only one I’ve kept is the SR-15. Its biggest strength is reliability. It’s lightweight and capable of MOA accuracy with match ammo, yet it’s still a true duty-grade weapon That said, the RD...

    Gas Block Problem

    While waiting on a gas tube, who makes the BCG? If you have a weed eater or string trimmer, you can cut off 6-inch piece of the string and use it to check for obstructions in the carrier's gas key.

    Craddock Precision Bartlein SR25?

    Do you know what kind of barrel blank it was? What is your thoughts on the adjustable gas block? Is it needed or do you essentially leave it wide open?

    Craddock Precision Bartlein SR25?

    I got my hands on one of the Troy Industries upper receivers they created for the M110 replacement solicitation. It fits my SR25 lower perfectly. I also randomly have a SR25 URX4 15" rail sitting around. I have been pondering ordering a 16" Bartlein 6.5 Creedmoor barrel from Craddock Precision...

    SR25 Upper Compatibility

    I guess if we ask, we shall receive. Centurion Arms is selling SR25 slanted upper receivers - https://centurionarms.com/mk11-7-62-billet-upper-receiver/

    Good luck on that hunt. I have no desire to go backwards in technology.

    They are beyond good to go. Family owned business that is totally solid.

    KF Armory (good to go) has 9 SR-25 6.5 APR, 22″ uppers in stock - https://kfarmory.com/product/kac-sr25-6-5-apr-upper-22/ As of today there are still four lowers in stock as I posted above at Operational Parts + this upper, and you have an SR25 in 6.5 Creedmoor.

    Knights Armament SR25 6.5 Creedmoor

    I'm naturally impatient with a gas gun (a personal problem, I know), so it's probably the same cadence as a bolt gun. Most of the time, it involves shooting and then going through the fundamental checklist, then shooting again. In my experience, unlike a bolt gun, where you can engage the bolt...

    Knights Armament SR25 6.5 Creedmoor

    Gas gun = fast gun. You can have a really bad day with a 762 SR25, but in my experience, it has more to do with the indian than the arrow.

    Knights Armament SR25 6.5 Creedmoor

    All of Knights guns are done in batches. A few months back there was a batch of SR25 lowers and some 22" uppers. In speaking with Jack at AUSA last year the 6.5 22" will be first, followed by the 14.5 and lastly followed by 16". Generally you are more successful buying the upper and lower...

    Knights Armament SR25 6.5 Creedmoor

    Yes, everything I have heard is that they have lighter recoil. 6.5 generally has less recoil. X-ring just did a great video on the 22":

    More constant tension with a faster rebound. It slows things down and elongates the operation.

    Knights Armament SR25 6.5 Creedmoor

    I am an AR armorer several times over, and I could tell the BCG was running crazy fast with my SiCo Omega. I took a SOTAR class, and Chad had done a lot of work on early SR25s that had issues. He said the easiest upgrade/fix is the Tubb spring. The difference was night and day. It should be...
