LosingitKY's Review of Alpha Shooting Sports ALPHA Premium 5.56 NiB V2 Bolt Carrier Group (BCG)
I've been going round and round with Optics Planet and ALPHA Shooting Sports. The BCG I received from Optics arrived quickly, but the rest of the build was delayed from other resellers. I didn't get a chance to even try the BCG until after the return period, that is my fault.
No matter what rifle I put this BCG in it will not cycle. It will fire the first round just fine, but won't always eject and NEVER picks up the next round. I contacted OP and they had me reach out to Alpha, which I did. Alpha and I exchanged several emails and pictures, they finally had me send the BCG to them. They are located in California, I am in Kentucky. They had the BCG for about two weeks, said they fired 10 rounds with it and had no malfunctions, then said they were sending me a newly test fired BCG. I received the BCG, it looks just like the one I sent them. Took it to the range today, same problems, tried 3 different rifles, 3 different bcgs in each rifle, the ONLY thing that had any issues was the Alpha BCG. I do not recommend it, unless you want a single shot BCG.
I've sent another email to Alpha letting them know about my latest range trip. I will wait and see what they say. I will update this review with any updates.
