if your running any carbine length gas system or pistol AR spend the money…get a heavy duty bcg…if you cheap out it will break…no light weight…wont last 10,000 rounds…spend more on parts like this
I originally wanted a BCM, yet they stayed sold out. I looked at others, but after researching Aero I couldn't see the purpose in spending the extra money on DD. Went with Aero, so far been happy with my purchase and my savings.
Imo that aero taking job is piss poor. It’s an easy fix tho. Rock river arms was always great with the staking on their bcg.
A+ on the background
Your paying for tighter tolerances and qc period…..
All you bashing DD for their 2A statement probably wearing Levi’s jeans.
If aero was twice the price everyone would say it’s the best you could buy
It was 1500 not 15000
I think you're just being a Daniel Fan Boy! It's covered in an inferior coating(that phosphate will rust before anything else) and the staking is "good" but not amazing, I've seen better. Also as an old infantry grunt I died a little bit when u punched out your ejector with your firing pin.
Aer0✅
dd is slipping last one was junk ,i have 4
Not the same. DD was a 158 Carpenter Steel; Aero 9310 bolt. 158 for rapid fire, mag dumps, etc. 9310 for accuracy.
Please don’t slam the staking with a screwdriver. Thats not a good idea. If you’re absolutely disappointed with the staking, send it back, or buy a staking tool and restake it.
Run nothing but aero in my rifles. Quality budget friendly battle ready gear to get any job done. I trust ap with my life.
I love the nickel boron aero bcg never had a single issue with it and it even will eat steel for breakfast all day no problem
I just received a black nitride BCG from Aero and was looking for the items you mentioned in this video. Seems like they saw this and corrected their mistakes or lack of QC, because the one I just got has a similar looking stake job as the Daniel Defense BCG you reviewed here. I was pleasantly surprised for under $150…. Aero makes great products
Off topic but are Fail Zero BCG's any good?
I like them both and they are both top notch BCG's but i'm more of a BCM fan for life the liberty rifles.
No. Its not worth the extra cost.
Great review, very helpful. Great video quality makes even better. Thank you.
Why bother with either one when you can buy a Sharps Rifle Company BCG?!
Colt has been deployed more years than Daniel Defense but both are really great. I don't know anything about aero, never owned anything of that brand…
I have a Daniel Defense forward quad rail on one of my AR-10 rifles. The rail bends very easily when bumped from side to side and the front sight will not hold zero. The rail is an older model they no longer make and are not willing to help me at all. Their customer service and quality as far as I am concerned is GARBAGE compared to Aero Precision. I would buy Areo ANY DAY over DD as a matter of fact I will NEVER buy anything daniel defense ever again.
Who makes Daniel defense BCG? RCA? or someone else?
I like the gray. Good video.
How about the PSA premium BCG?
I wouldn’t spend a penny with Daniels defense bc of the control crap they spew. I trust aero
If you put a quality spring for your extractor you shouldn't need a o ring.None of my Colts came with o rings and they're 100%.
DD for the win.Youre right about the quality control and DD has it and Aero is spotty.I say that because I have two Aero stripped lowers that are out of spec.
The rifles you own now might be the last rifles you get own. Buy Daniel Defense. #2ndAmendment
I'll just keep the bcg that came with my armalite M153GN18….
I will always say this when it comes to BCG's. The BGC is a consumable. You don't have to pay top dollar to get a good one. Paying top dollar for one is like paying top dollar for a sheet of sandpaper. Sure it might hold up a bit longer but it was never meant to be forever, it was always a throwaway part.
I think you need to check out school of the american rifle youtube channel for a more in depth review on bolt carrier group autopsies and you'll see why you wanna spend once, cry once.
Most of my bcgs are Colt 2012 vintage when Colt was still Colt.Theyre 100% and I've never had a failure with any of the five.I also have one PSA premium hpt mpi 158bolt bcg and it hasn't failed and it is used for steel cased ammo.I did put a Colt gold ext spring in the PSA.
I strictly use Daniel Defense and BCM.
That’s it
My ATO bcg has much better staking than both of those. In the end the job of the staking is to retain the gas key in it’s place.
I've always picked quality over quantity. With that being said, BCG and BARREL HEART (s) OF THE AR-15. Then it comes down to the purpose you built your AR-15. If you are the type of shooter to drop a thousand rounds like you turn on the water, then you know which one you would pick.
If you're a weekend warrior and you won't see a thousand rounds in a couple of months arrow precision is perfect choice.
They're both well made, just have to pick the components for your purpose.
Semper Fi ⚡☠️⚡
Simply looking at 2 different BCG doesn't mean one is better than the other. Comparing tolerances with USGI tools would determine which has better fitment.
is a tin coated bcg as durable as nib bcg? for the average shooter that is?
Aren’t these two BCGs about the same price now. I paid $179.99 for my aero precision build the other day
Not a fan of DD, you can wipe you a $$, with $100 bills, it doesn't make it cleaner. Nuff said😎
