Thread: Bolt carrier

  1. #1

    Default Bolt carrier

    Anyone`s best guess on this bolt carrier backlog? These prices and scarcity a long term concern?.. Look I realize there are some that say Obama may try some sort of executive action..

    I `m looking for a couple..

    Be patient, they were getting scarce before the big scary panic buy. (They were hard to get last year at xmas too if i remember.)

    Then everyone bought them to build stripped uppers. I doubt dipshit would even know what a BCG is, to do something about it.

    I've been looking daily but even if I find one it won't matter cause ammo is even harder to find. I'd like to get going on my build but I've considered it on permanent hold until it calms down.

    I have lot`s of ammo..I`ll swap for BCG? But I`ll not pay +$300 for an LMT or YHM or other OEM BCG, like is happening now on some of the auction sites. Any Pros out there with an ear to when this BCG thing is going to settle down?

    Guess I`ll just bide my time.. My LEO6920 and a couple others will take care of me if the DOO DOO hits the fan soon..I wanted to get these others into the hands of Patriots before it could possibly be "illegal" to do so.

    Order a couple, they will be backordered. Then wait.

    Where are you finding some to backorder? Everywhere I've looked, they are out of stock with no option to backorder. [dunno]

    You'd probably have better luck with local stores than online, since they receive shipments regularly and don't typically take backorders. We called 1-2 places a day for about a week, then lucked out with two Black Rain BCGs that just happened to get shipped in that day.

    I was on Bravo Company's auto-notify list, but they only seem to get more once every 1-2 months and they're gone pretty much instantly.

    I've made a few calls but being that I'm in retail I can't bring myself to call someone daily since that drives me nuts when people do that to me.

    Bravo only makes their BCGs a couple (2 or 3) times a year -- and they sell out stupid quick.

    Check RGuns. Just be aware that they are quoting 4-6 weeks for processing and shipping.
