Never would have guessed....... :)
I am a Big AR fan dont get me wrong but this was misleading. I thought it went 30000 with no malfunctions. Having parts replaced and the cleaning takes away from the badass of this. Still though impressive. My next upper is going to be a BC upper. Just becuase of all the great stuff I have heard about it. I have a Colt AR right now and it is amazing. In one day I shot 1500 silver bear through it no issues. All in all it has a little over 17000 through it right now. It doesnt group well anymore so it is going to be time to get a new upper. Hope the BC holds up to the rep!
Love my BCM upper, wish I could afford to run even a quarter of those rounds thru it.
Bobby, I wonder if you're discounting how hard that rifle was run. That was run through multiple, multiple classes, mostly by students. Every class it ran through was most likely 1K+ rounds per class. Having just had a couple of parts replaced and cleaned, what, once? That's damned impressive.
Love my Recce 14, and my SPR will be a BCM MK 12. Shameless gun pron:

Wow - Very cool, indeed.
Filthy 14 by now probably has about 37k through it and still chugging AFAIK.
Just posted on FB by BCM.
Bravo Company USA Bravo Company MID-16 rifle featured
on cover and inside Oct 2010 issue of SWAT Magazine.
Rifle is still in service with 39,000+ rounds.
I can't help it; I found it a little sad when they said that they're going to retire it at the end of the year. Hell, I'll take the upper!
Just another pick; Zeke was fat and happy with dinner, and quite cooperative. You might also notice the simple mod I made with the XTM panels; I cut one in half so that I could have the front site fold all the way down, and no break between the AFG and the panels.

Naw, he's purebred. He's a retired show dog; they wouldn't certify his hips, and he wasn't good for show or breeding anymore, so we adopted him. He's a hell of a good dog.
