My gen 1 had issues I had to cut the feed ramps put in stronger extractor re profile it so it was sharper and worked less hard. New stronger firing pin spring and longer firing pin. But for 169.00 I was happy and was very accurate. I’m sure they’ve sorted it
This is one of the better videos that y'all have made in the last couple of years. Smooth talking could tell that the person was properly informed and enjoyed what they were talking about believed in what this product accomplishes.
Bear Creek is on top of their game, and they just keep getting better. I compared my BCA upper to one my friend just got that was in the same price range and there was a big difference in quality
Salty dudes who spend $1k+ on every build for "boutique" brands just to go to the range and miss 🤣😂 while I'm knocking the center out of targets with my BCAs and PSAs with Monstrum optics.
I’m impressed. My 200 dual charger has 5r rifling and 11* crown and is a bull barrel. I want light barrels but now it’s cheaper to make a bull they have less to cut.
Same. Barrel options, gas block options, muzzle device options. Yeah, the add-ons would definitely increase the price, but with prices like they have for the quality received... #WorthIt
@@Cory14Tina02 Just like the 2nd amendment protects us, so does the 5th.. I refuse to answer questions. haha *edit* and Cory, with the only other products on the market costing $300+ for what equates to a hinge with a spring pin... theyre products that bearcreek could easily dominate the marketshare and win themselves more spotlight. Ill design them myself if they can't figure out how to create an alternative solution to patent..
Side note not mentioned: in the process of installing a Superlative Arms adjustable gas block recently, I noticed that they ship with the gas port adjustment screw in the fully closed position. If not altered prior to first round of test shots, you WILL encounter a failure to cycle. I personally recommend opening the adjustment screw about one full revolution prior to your first shot. If you get a failure to cycle, stovepipe, or rearward ejection, you are still under gassed and should adjust accordingly. Other than that, yet another great and insightful video, Lamar. I'm so happy y'all are carrying such a great gas block. I'm just wondering how long it will be before we get the option to choose rifles & complete uppers with these pre-installed. Maybe we can get an option for standard or BCA-VG6G muzzle devices in the future too...? Hint hint. Lol
tbh im surprised that they remained at such a solid price even through the pandemic.. huge majority of pandemic builds are from BCA, their ar47 is unmatched.
Buy an extended ball head Allen wrench with a screwdriver type handle. I have one that's about 10" long that I use to change the gas on my 15" handguard carbine builds, etc. It will work on 18" HG w/20" barrel builds too.
Superlative AGB's are great. Read the adjustment instructions. They exhaust gases out through a hole, or the user can use it like a valve ...reduce gas flow only. I use one on a 308.
While I've upgraded to more "premium" AR15s, I still fire my BCAs and the value is really great for the price. The customer support was on point too which I always preach, adds value to any product. While these aren't battle rifles, I can appreciate the need to fill affordable AR15s and gun parts for the newer or more budget minded shooter. It's because of companies like Bear Creek Arsenal that I got into firearms and the pro 2A movement. I wouldn't have been able to afford AR15s like Radians and ADMs like I can now.
Hello I have an issue so I got a 20” .308 fluted barrel and the firing retaining pin is not going back into the bcg it was not going in now matter how much I wiggled it and pushed it in is there any way to get a new pin or would I just have to buy a new one
Sorry to hear that. Please submit a warranty request on our website and we will certainly assist in getting this rectified. Here is a video that will guide you through the warranty process: ua-cam.com/video/eR2B27WtoZM/v-deo.html
John I had a similar issue I used small needle nose I believe to push up on the pin when trying to line up the hole it took a lot of effort to get back in after that I ordered some spares
I had that problem with mine. I just took a Dremel with a wire wheel and cleaned the coating off the pin and in between the legs of the pin with some emery cloth. Comes out fairly easy, and goes back in with a firm push. Not like all the junk m16s A2s and m4s I dealt with in the airforce
Heeeeeyyyy.. Isn't that a Superlative Arms? I have one in shipping but, I may need another one.. This one looks similar... I have a 300WSM on a 26.5 in barrel, with magnum length but, stock blocks cause the pressure to attempt to rotate too soon so, I'm dropping gas to zero and will work up to a good range... edit: as watching, heard yal say it's so... Excellent, I'll get one from you guys.. Awesome!!!
Unless you have a 16" 300bo running a pistol length gas system under a 15" handguard & can't quite get a good angle through one of the cutouts. In which case, you're kinda screwed if you want to run a can with that configuration.

I run a SA AGB on all my BCA uppers, & I run standard buffers & springs. I do also incrementally step up the gas port size, reinstall the original GB, then test before swapping to the AGB. They are all fine tuned & run great.
One question can you adjust this gas block all the way down to absolute zero as in a new jersey setting where you only shoot one bullet deliberately and not have the bolt cycle accept by your hand ?
This is a big deal for you guys I definitely know I'm more likely to buy even more uppers from you guys if they already come with an adjustable gas block.
It'd be even better if they sold gas system assemblies (gas block with tube pre-installed.). I freaking HATE pinning gas tubes. I'd rather install pivot pins all day.
@@Cory14Tina02 lol I haven't had to do a gas block yet...! But I figured out the takedowns pins fairly easy without a jig driving the roll pin for the trigger gaurd was a royal pain!
@@hopewilliams6705 yeah, those can be a bit hairy, especially if you're terrified of snapping one of the tabs while tapping the pin home. I've found that a nice block to stabilize the receiver and a nice small spring loaded needle nose pliers holding your pin, and even squeezing it a bit smaller to start off, helps installation greatly. Not much can be done unfortunately about potential damage anxiety.
When you want to start dinner running your rifle. What he means by that is if you want to stop snapping ejector roll pins every 100 rounds with our products, buy this gas block. 🙄
I believe this is what I need. I have a 300 BLKOuT with a honey badger pistol brace that doesn’t cycle properly. But it works with a regular SbA3 tho
Bca is Killin it. So glad I decided to go with you guys for my 7.62x39 rifle

How about a video of uninstalling a BCA gas block and reinstalling a BCA adjustable gas block!
I have 2 7.62 uppers and I love them. Accurate and have had zero issues with over 1000 rounds per upper on them.
I adjust mine by drilling it out
Bear Creek is on top of their game, and they just keep getting better. I compared my BCA upper to one my friend just got that was in the same price range and there was a big difference in quality
Or you just got lucky

They need to make suppressors ands it game over if the tax stamp is ever removed (gaining traction as of lately)
BCA trying to step up their game if u don’t own any of their uppers I recommend getting a few before their prices start to raise
.308 AR10 16" barrel uppers are $249 right now..
@@danielpicquet1042 I might get another 308 as a backup or 6.5 creedmoor cause why not lol

My adjuster wont turn in any direction. Dirty? Or reached its end?
It is necessary to have and adjustable Gas block on a 9" Pistol 300 Blackout?
yes it is

Good video brother
I might get one, 1 day when I'm financially stable again for a grendal build. If FJB ever gets impeached though.
Not gonna lie Bca is killing the game rn , just bought a 7.62 x39 upper and it’s shooting moa at 100 yards with tul ammo

For the price i rather have the gas block say superlative. Better resale value.
You should never have to remove the handguard to adjust the gas block.
Unless you have a 16" 300bo running a pistol length gas system under a 15" handguard & can't quite get a good angle through one of the cutouts. In which case, you're kinda screwed if you want to run a can with that configuration.

So when can I get a BCA branded can to go with my new gas block on my new upper???
Nice
woa.. so do you need the heavy buffer with an adjustable gas block anymore? and can this fix carbines struggling with steel casing?
I run a SA AGB on all my BCA uppers, & I run standard buffers & springs.
I do also incrementally step up the gas port size, reinstall the original GB, then test before swapping to the AGB.
They are all fine tuned & run great.
Lamar can over-gassing lead to your grouping getting wider?
One question can you adjust this gas block all the way down to absolute zero as in a new jersey setting where you only shoot one bullet deliberately and not have the bolt cycle accept by your hand ?
If you close it fully yes. It will have no flow

This is a big deal for you guys I definitely know I'm more likely to buy even more uppers from you guys if they already come with an adjustable gas block.

Are you going to sell these as an add on that can be bought through Bear Creek
These can only be bought individually right now. Find in AR-15 Parts
