How is the bca 450 upper?
People bad mouth these guys, but who else gives you MOA results for under $300. I have a few BCA uppers, and they all shoot awesome. 4150 barrels, S&W value AR has a 4140 barrel.
Does it take a standard ar lower?
Subbed looking for a deer rifle for my Ar
I’m having failure to eject issues using an H2 buffer with a red buffer spring with this exact upper and Hornady Black Ammo. Have any advice?
Anyone recommend different buffers and springs or other parts or just go with regular carbine buffer and spring. Sorry saw on web says standard. But also still wondering if anyone has tried other parts as well.
Anyone know how long Bear Creek has been out of stock with these uppers? I can’t get an email response and I’ve noticed most other sites sell them at 2x what BCA sells them for so I wonder if I should bother holding out for them to re stock.
I got this with two free mags from them
These are by far the best of quality you can get don’t buy from Radical Firearms they don’t pride themselves in quality
I just bought one, where did you find that magazine?
This pins on a AR 15? As in a 223 lower? Doesn't have to have the AR 10 bigger body, and mag well?
Honesty just spend few more dollars ,dont buy bca. I have budget uppers dtt,psa ,anderson & bca. Bsa is the worst biggest pos i own.! I have changed the receiver, its way to heavy,the barrel nut is a pos. Honestly they are junk not even good for upgrades. Dtt not that great either but i have not shot to many times.Bca really let me down bought the upper in my favorite caliber then bought another upper in same cal 6 7 months later
Thanks for your info
I ordered one. Haven’t shot it yet but I already like it.
My barrel I got from them has some defects. The price also dropped from $88 to 70$ shortly AFTER the presidents day sale price I bought it for. I emailed them about the defects and price drop and got a response that didn't even address the barrels defects I mentioned in the email to them. I have a feeling they just read a bit about the price drop and skipped the rest of my email. Im ok with the price drop in the end it was my bad timing even If it leaves a bad taste in the mouth as a first time BCA customer. However the barrel still has flaws. Which their response message never even addressed at all. I emailed them a 2nd time listing the defects my barrel has which include something sticking up in the bore, chip/dent in the machined flute and a pretty bad ring around it. None of which can just be buffed out. Im still waiting to hear back. So far Im not so confident in Bear Creek Arsenal or their customer service and would not recommend them personally as my luck has not been to good at all.
I just ordered a side charging .450 Bushmaster, cant wait to shoot it.
I got mine on sale with a 16 inch barrel named her Jolene.. Was so pleased with it i bought a 308 upper complete …also 16 inch barrel on sale for 349$..awesome deal. named her Isabelle… Glad I bought them when I did ….the price went up
I'm going to buy one ASAP.
I have the exact same barrel and bought it on sale as well. The funny thing is that I live in the town where they are made in Sanford NC, but they don't have a sales office so I actually had to order it online and pay shipping. 🙁 Any how it shoots good with a magazine with 450 bushmaster follower…No jams. Shoots great!
I have one of these. Great value upper.
Cool upper, 450 is a dope round. Getting this for my brothers birthday.
Would it fit on ruger 556 mrp lower?
Just purchased BCA upper. What mags should I be buying.?Thanks.
Did you have to change the buffer/spring in your upper??
I was looking at this upper to buy. Watched your part 2 video first and that sealed the deal. Made the purchase. Thanks for the awesome videos. This will be my 3rd upper purchase from BCA. They are flawless so far, .223 Wylde and 7.62×39
A nice looking upper for the money .
i did a .300 blackout upper
I ordered the same one as you but got a different muzzle break for some reason. It has straight cut outs rather than the spiral. Nevertheless, pretty pleased with it so far. My only complaint so far is that the handrail isn’t flush with the billet. Can’t wait to see how it shoots
This upper is awesome. Very accurate. Got mine for $208.00. Get one! I was surprised when I got mine and saw it has the coated BCG, melonite possibly. Spectacular deal.
Can’t wait to see part 2! I have been waiting for these to come back in stock, so I can get one of my own.
I ordered mine the same day as you they were only in stock for a few hours. I was in the deer stand when i checked and finally they were back in.
