In this video we compare and contrast the PSA (budget) and the BCM (mid tier) rifles. We talk about the pros and cons for each and try to give some buying guidence. Don’t come at me in the comments about classifying BCM as mid tier. Its “mid tier” due to cost not performance.

What should we compare next?
Ill soon be looking for my 1st AR 😮
Iwi Zion-15 vs Bcm ?
Haha, did you all just say that BCM isn't necessary something you would use for work?
I recently bought a magpul PSA lower for $139 and a mid length 16in upper with a 4150cmv barrel (just as good as hammered forge, in my opinion) for $289, rail was even coated in FDE for a grand total of $428 now that you cannot beat! And not mention PSA is great company to support. Their mission is freedom over profit, arm as many citizens as possible. Very pro 2A and great customer service. You also can eventually throw in a BCM bcg and radian charging handle and it will be just as good as the higher end ones
I have a ruger 5.56 that the only thing ruger left on it is the stripped upper and lower. I've trained with it for 12 years, and now that the gun has all new parts , I probably have 3,200 in it now its going to be my daughters first AR, I also have a bcm 11.5, bg deffence type A 7.5 300 blk out, and 223 wyld radian 14.5 and a couple of them cost close to that and did not even come with back up irons on them. I love the ruger for an AR. If you can't get a 2600 to 3 grand rifle right away. You can build on an already great platform that has been proven for many years. Now i agree bcm upper n aero lower if you have another 600 bucks its worth it.
I would attribute your recoil difference being the GIANT muzzle break on the BCM and not so much the weight or gas system of the rifles…
Your production guys are wasting money on sun screens looks gay as shit put a filter on the lens and adjust the aperture could have saved 600 and bought another psa
Have both love both bcm is better quality though
Im happier than hell with my BCA upper an PSA lower, but what i wanna know is what brand was your cutter?
That big ol square of diffusion, was that Westcott, Impact, or???
Bcm upper with free bcg 850 check the blem page pretty frequent good deals on uppers for even less, psa Sabre lower with geisselle ssa trigger radion ambi saftey other lower upgrades for 350, pretty nice set up feels really premium for 1200.
Great video. I took some of your videos into consideration when I purchased my psa Sabre
I have a Radical RF15 5.56 with B5 systems furniture out the box ($399 on PSA). I added a Radian Raptor charging handle, Streamlight HLX 1000 flashlight/laser, Sig Sauer Tango MSR 1-6x LPVO, Magpul angled foregrip, and a Magpul MLOK Bipod.
Just a stripped lower and build it to you own personl specs I love my 11.5 shtf rifle PSA lower Aero lower parts kit Warhammer charging handle Bcm bcg roscoe bloodline 11.5 barrel superlative arms 750 Adjustable gas block SB 4 pistol brace midwest m lok rail all about 1600 with accessories holosun 510 with magnifier handstop 45 degree flip ups and cheap Amazon weapons light(will upgrade nxt week) but yea thats my beech
It’s 736 dollars before tax for a bcm upper with BCG and CH on the BCM website. Throw a 300 dollar lower setup on it and call it good. There’s no reason to get a SABRE when you can get a BCM at the same price. Obviously y’all are comparing the basic PSA rifle here but the Sabre really doesn’t make any sense to me at its price point
I love psa but those aero precisions and BCM blems are well appreciated as well.
I am unsubing after this generic slop
lol.. its all about the love… i did a PSA lower n upper, and used B5 stock and grip, Larue barrel, Larue handguard, and internals were a geissle lpk and bcg.. it shoots wonderful.. its all about the love u give it..and the fun u have
A good Ruger 556 with a few upgrades is a great platform.
The only issue I have ever had with PSA is a 300 BLK that was headspaced too tight. I would love to see a video of sustained fire on one to see how the bolt etc holds up vs. the expensive options. I'm doubtful there is a huge accuracy difference unless the barrel gets very hot. PSA also offers forged FN barrels on some higher end options.
For budget vs performance you can't beat self building if you're handy. Always hit the blems, got a bcm grip,stripped upper and buffer tube for like half the price.
