Flashy at first, gtg 1800 rds later - Andro Corp Industries M16 Hard Bolt Carrier Group

NA's Review of Andro Corp Industries M16 Hard Bolt Carrier Group
As I ordered ammo and this BCG, a backorder of 6 weeks later, the BCG wss finally in my newly built upper.
This upper was built for CQ drills with increased volumes of fire, and as a back up to my DDM4V7 upper. My build has a Wilson Combat .223 Wylde 16" barrel mounted onto a BCM receiver, shrouded by a Ripcord Industries handguard and an A2 flash hider.
This BCG hopped into the build, went through about 500 rounds each month since February. This month, I reached about 1800 rounds and I felt compelled to relay its merits.
The finish on the bolt carrier's rails left at around 700 rounds. The bolt lugs have lost their finish for the most part. Besides that? It's been absolutely solid. Yes. Nickel Boron, Diamond-Like Carbon, and Titanium Nitride are absolute market fodder. Their necessity on duty builds is arguable. If you want a solid BCG, go for Daniel Defense, or Toolcraft.
Otherwise, Andro Corps is an absolute solid BCG.
Pros:
reliable
Quality Control
Premium
Duty-rated
Cons:
Was back ordered for quite some time
Best Used for:
