My buddy likes his. Almost a year since he got it and no issues so far for a monthly shooter.
They have several options in the $214.90 price. Standard 5.56, 223 Wyldes, AR47 and all are handguard models with or without front sight.
$10 flat rate to Florida, or $15 economy shipping.....BUT, buy more than one, the economy shipping gets better, flat rate is per gun. 2 for $16, 3 for $20, etc
Anyone purchased anything from Bear Creek Arsenal? Comments?
I've purchased three of their 1:8 m4 profile nitride 5.56 barrels.
No problems using a variety of brass cased ammo. I haven't shot any Steel through it, but they've been flawless so far.
Accuracy is right at 2MOA using a 3x prism scope and cheap ball ammo. I think I can get that down to 1-1.5 MOA or better once I put higher power scope on and use match ammo.
Supposedly Bear Creek guarantees 1 MOA if match ammo is used. That's probably about right.
I know a lot of people hate on Bear Creek from when they were Moore Machining, but I've only ever dealt with the Bear Creek brand, and they punch above the price for the cost. Quality is great IMO.
I have two BCA items (1) a side-charging upper receiver and BCG combo and (2) a BCA 16" barrel (via Primary Arms).
The side charger is being used on a 6.5 Grendel build (swapped bolt). Work just peachy for what it is used for (steel Silhouettes out to 800Y). Great price for what it is.
The BCA Mid-length barrel was a Primary Arms $59 sale item picked up for a range loaner. Gas port was entirely too small (0.060) and had to be tapped out a bit (0.075) to run correctly. Runs fine. Nothing special, but not terrible.
$224.90 shipped to my door, couldn't pass it up!
