    7.62x39, right side charger, 16-inch barrel mated to CMMG lower. I stepped up to an H2 buffer, Black Rifle Arms enhanced firing pin and heavy hammer spring. The extractor broke (

    My family all moved to side chargers from BCA for our hog hunting setups. Side charger is a must for racking and chambering a round when you have a huge night vision scope at the rear of the upper. Once you use one you’ll be hook and will never look back! ❤

    I have several Bear Creek side chargers, love them. BUT my overall choice (whenever it as available) is the dual charger. Side charge and rear charge makes for the best platform.

    I am a fan of the side charging handle. My first BC upper is a .300 dual charging upper. I'm going to remove the rear and plug it when I get a suppressor.

    BCA, here are some marketing 101 tips. If you are showcasing features of a gun, freaking show the features in action - don't leave it up to the consumer to imagine the benefit.
    i.e:
    Put a larger optic on the gun when showcasing it's easy to operate the bolt with a large optic
    Actually put a damn suppressor on the gun and shoot 300 blackout with it to show gas redirection
    I'm rooting for you guys, trust me - but I can't when you do this below par marketing production

    very interesting tip about the gas discharge at the rear when suppressed. up until that moment, i just thought the side charging gimmick was an experiment for the sake of experimenting. this changes a lot.

    • @95GTSpeedDemon
      @95GTSpeedDemon 9 годин тому

      Still plenty of gas unfortunately. I still buy the side chargers. Run a adj gas block, turn gas off and make it a straight pull bolt action. No gas then.

    @BearCreek Arsenal why not do a left side charge, with right eject, as a standard??? so as to not have to do that cross under, or over the top charging as the AK does???

    I was considering buying the bca side charging 762 but i was thrown off because everyone says ill need to get a new extractor, firing pin and eventually the whole bolt. If you could fix those issues thatd be lovely. I love the idea of a side charging 762 ar. (But they all dumby expensive)

    Since you have a proprietary bolt carrier to accommodate the side charger, please make a gas adjustment in the bolt.

      I definitely agree. BCA sells a cheap product.
      PSA sells inexpensive products, there’s a big difference. You won the lottery if you get a BCA upper that will shoot 500 rounds without a problem.

    I’m pretty upset with you guys. I ordered a 24 inch upper and the same day you shipped it , it got damaged/ destroyed in shipping with FEDEX. Now you guys are making me wait 14 days for FedEx to complete their investigation, I haven’t even received the upper it didn’t even leave North Carolina and fed ex already confirmed it will not be sent to me either sent back to you guys or they will refund you if it was totally lost. I am not waiting two weeks on top of the week and the half I’ve already waited and I still have not received Anythjng I’ve paid for. No other company has customer service this poor. All I’m asking is for a refund or for you guys to send me a different upper while you wait for your own investigation to go through. It’s not my responsibility you guys didn’t pack it right in shipping. Again I haven’t even gotten it and I will not get this upper yet you are asking me to wait a month instead of making this right and just sending me another
