Went to install the bolt carrier and found it was getting hung up on the gas tube. Upon inspection I found that the gas key was deformed and had scratches around the rim. I swapped the fostech out with 2 other carriers I had and they worked fine. Now I need to figure out how to change the gas key and stake the screws…other than that issue, the carrier, bolt and other small parts look great. The nickel finish is smooth

Feels sturdier than typical milspec. Fit and finish are perfect. Haven’t test fired yet but racking is smooth as can be.

Excellent upgrade to a mil-spec bolt carrier group. Price was fantastic. Fit and finish is great. Just, drop in and go to the range. Shipping was great. Would definitely recommend and would definitely purchase again.

This bolt has a great finish on it. Super easy to clean. Fit well for my ar15 build. Runs really smooth inside the ar15. The bolt carrier came in goos packaging and came in light oil. This company is pretty good.

Fostech is a upper grade A tier product line, this BCG in nickel boron is just that, smooth as an easy day, an absolute dream to clean with just a cloth, do not hesitate on this, take advantage you won’t be sorry! Enjoy!

I haven’t used it yet but looks ok. There are some tool marks on certain spots but won’t hinder the form and function of the BCG. Other than that I don’t foresee any issues. The gas key looks staked properly.

Got this for the ecosport trigger. It Needed a "full auto" bcg for it. Went with this one to match brands. It came complete, dropped it in amd was ready to go waste ammo. Finish is good, price was great.

I bought the nickel boron one. It is great. I had bought one before and it worked excellent, clean and smooth. The second one I just bought is just as great. I think this one is going to be the BCG for all my builds.
Also, I like the stainless "color" as it is easier to see when it is dirty and keep it clean.
Would recommend: Yes

I got the boron bolt. It looks pretty but I can't get tell you how it shoots. It won't feed the rounds for some reason. The one round I got chambered... The firing pin didn't hit.. no pew. I broke the thing down and rebuilt it. I should have returned it but I'm impatient and like to do things on my own. I'll update if it shoots.
Cons:
- Won't feed ammo
- Won't fire
Best Used for:
- Paperweight
- Heavy fishing sinker
Would recommend: No
