Reviews & Ratings for RISE Armament AR-15 Bolt Carrier Group (BCG) — 32 reviews — Page 1

The Rise Armament bcg with black nitride coating works as advertised and seems to be a well machined part. However, there are splotches where the finish has worn off after 15 rounds. I will include pictures. If it gets any worse, I'm probably going to ask to exchange it. Optics planet, as always, did an amazing job. I love the site and the speedy shipping.

had to readjust gas block to fire properly, still havent because bear creek arsenal hasnt respnoded

According to the website, this item is supposed to be new but when I opened it to inspect it, the bolt was cover in carbon and just wiping it didn’t cut it, I had to pull my cleaning kit to scrub all the carbon from the bolt. I never had any issues with Optics planet before but today they failed me, both of my orders weren’t good.

Runs great no failures, perfect ejection no bullets stuck in the chamber. The nickel boron finish is perfect, 100 rounds so far no flinch. Installed on a 10.3 AR build. Recently had another BCG always had ejection problems I had to swap the bolt with a BCM.

No more jams! This is the best bolt carrier I've ever had the pleasure of firing with. Added a flat trigger and with the smooth action my accuracy has improved and again on target is much easier.

This is so easy to clean, and it runs perfect. So far just as good as a 300-dollar BCG.

Well here we go again. I just reviewed the RISE 242 trigger that I got along with this bcg and yea these two crush. Both in the nickel boron finish. Super smooth finish and everything was assembled perfectly. I usually run radian enhanced bcg’s but were sold out everywhere so I figure why not get one of these and really put it through its paces. I was building a new rifle and just for some context these two mated up to an AndroCorp aci-15 Bravo rifle with a geisselle lower parts kit as well as their ambi charge handle. Also have JP enterprises silent capture spring and adjustable gas block. Last part is funny in my opinion is the Guntec slip over compensator/shroud combo which actually isn’t just for looks funny enough. Oiled everything up and hit the range. Everyone says the AndroCorp being a cheap starter rifle is already a good gun but I decided to totally replace everything to what I’m used to and lemme tel you. I put 2500 rounds through this thing and I’ll tel you it shoots ever it as good as my Sig Spear!!! All in I put a total of around $1300 into this rifle and now i don’t know why I own the spear lol. I went back after 20 mins of cool off and put the stock bcg in realizing I never even shot it (and without and hiccups) I realize that the Rise bcg was so much smoother. Heard a lot of back and forth about nickel boron stuff and lemme tell ya I just put another 1500 rounds through 500 being the stock bcg and a 1000 being the RISE one and it’s a would of difference if ...

Smooth and a solid carrier group function's Perfect and clear up so easy was a great choice !

I needed a new BCG for one of my rifles and decided on the Rise Armament BCG Black Nitride since it was in the price range I was looking for and I know Rise makes quality products. The first one I received came broken as it was missing a gas ring, was very lose and failed the gas ring test. It also looked like it seen 10000 rounds due to all the carbon build up and how dirty it was. I RMA'd it and OP sent me a brand new Rise BCG within a matter of 2 days (excellent customer service) and this time I received an actual brand new BCG. The tolerances were tight and it passed the gas ring test with flying colors. The staking on the gas key were excellent too so I decided to throw it in the upper that was in need of a new BCG, took it to the range and shot 200 rounds flawlessly. I am glad I waited to write the review; until I got the new one. Let's say I was not thrilled with the first one I received and would not even attempt to put it in any rifle due the condition it was in. I think I received a broken and used BCG by mistake the first time but the second one was perfect. I would definitely recommend it and would buy it again. Thanks OP for coming through!

Does what i ask it to do with no problems. Had no problem installing and with a little lube its been fine.
