AP bolt carrier group

[Primeh1alpha]

Good day everyone, does anyone have anything to say about the Aero Precision phosphate 308, 6.5 bolt carrier group? It appears to have the rounded ejector, high pressure bolt and firing pin, etc. Looking for any issues or complaints with it, or any good feelings too, thanks everyone.

They do good parts, have no fear of it.  THey use to source all their BCGs from ToolCraft, but now they're making them all themselves.   It's good stuff.

Just whoring the thread a bit - but I think it's aligned...   I heard (might have been here - not positive) that Aero Precision and Ballistic Advantage are now owned by the same company (one bought the other or someone bought them both) and that BCG stuff branded as BA is from Aero - and Aero branded barrels are now all BA.  Can anyone confirm (or refute) this? 

Assuming that this IS true - I can tell you that the BA AR-10 BCG that I bought for my 8.6 project is functioning beautifully in my Aero M5 upper and that while it's still early in its life, its dealing well with the first bit of abuse that I've shown it... 🙂

Completely true, all of it.
