Reviews & Ratings for Cryptic .223/5.56/.300 AAC Blackout Left Hand Bolt Carrier Group (BCG) - Complete — 4 reviews — Page 1

You will NOT regret buying this left handed BCG. 5 years ago, I was skeptical about getting into the left side ejection AR game due to the limitations of parts availability for vital components such as the BCG and bolt. THANK GOD for Cryptic! Not only is it the best left handed BCG I've used, but it's also the best BCG I've used period! You won't ever have to worry about lube freezing up or getting thick due to extreme cold weather because you can shoot this dry with absolutely zero issues.

This is why the Mystic Black is more expensive. This is literally the God's gift BCG for lefties shooting left side eject ARs.

Trust me, you won't regret it. Once you're back from the range, just take a paper towel and rub off all the carbon. It literally slips off like butter.

The ONLY part you'd probably need cleaner or scraper is where all BCGs get the worst buildup of hard carbon; where the gas port shoots onto the opposite side of the bolt face where the firing pin is installed past the gas rings. Everything else slips off like it's nothing. I've shot over 15,0...

This bolt carrier has a very nice smooth finish. Haven’t finished the build yet, but this is perfect and was a great deal.

I’m very pleased with this bolt I put together a left-handed upper and it was one of the very few that I could find that was decent priced it assembled well and appears to be very well-made
