Re: best mfg. for ar BCG
The Fail Safes are excellent and the ones I have seen run like a scalded dog, but they are damned expensive (roughly $250-300...includes an EXO coated hammer as well). That is roughly twice what most standard carrier groups will run you and unless you are shooting a helluva lot of rounds through your AR, are running F/A, or are completely adverse to properly lubricating your AR, it is hard to justify the additional money in my book.
I would have a hard time justifying the expense over an LMT, Young or similar unit for MUCH cheaper.

Ive been running an LMT for awhile and have had no issues with it. Bravo Company BCG are really good to from everything ive read and seen so thats a option.

Re: best mfg. for ar BCG
I just ordered one yesterday from rainier arms. On sale for $250, then found out fail zero just lowered the regular price to $250. What a deal? Oh well. I like the reviews I have read and at only $50 more than BCM or Global Tactical ion bonds, I figured it was worth a go. Less cleaning, No flaking of chrome as some are reputed to have, Sharp looking. I could have probably gotten by fine with BCG's half the price, but sometimes you gotta try something new.

Re: best mfg. for ar BCG
With Rainier Arms, if it has an "ADD TO CART" button that is active, it is in stock and ready to go. If it has a yellow "NOTIFY ME PLEASE" Button, then it is unavailable. They have real-time inventory on the website.
Here is a link to the FS BCG if that is the route you are going:

Good luck!
