Disappointment

by Chippy, Verified Owner from MN, United States Written on March 4, 2019
Gas rings only lasted about 400 rounds. Extractor pin was too short and walks to one side after a few rounds pushing one side of it to rub inside the carrier. My 50-60 dollar bcg s have lasted longer than this one. Thought I'd try something different. Wish I didnt

  • None

Alpha BCG review

by JR, Verified Owner from WI, United States Written on June 11, 2018
Bought for budget build. Using for both 300 and 556 uppers. Ran great with 300 in a CBC upper. Still need to get to range with 556 in a Stag Arms set up. Using the same lower with 2 different uppers. Moving the the bcg and charging handle between the 2 set ups. Works well with 100 round so far. I would recommend. 4 stars only because of limited use so far.

Alpha Sports BCG in 5.56

by Ray Mendoza, Verified Owner from CO, United States Written on May 11, 2018
Fit and finish are great so far could be a little better stacked but is more than good enough. Haven't been to the range with it yet but I looking forward to how it performs. I have it on a 300 blk pistol and I like the milled downed side of the carrier looks really nice.

Alpha 556 bcc

by Hondo 75, Verified Owner from OH, United States Written on April 5, 2018
Have not install yet, but I must say it is high quality and the price was what I was looking for. Shipping was fast. Looking for my barrel and upper to be shipped within the next several days. Optics has been my choice for all my gun parts.
