I got screwed on a barrel from them. 20" 6.5 Grendel. I've had it for years before getting around to trying to shoot it. The chamber looks like a wood chisel was used to form it. Call em up. They'll refund your money in most cases. It's worth a try. At the least they'll probably exchange it. Greg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlhneast Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 On 7/9/2022 at 9:30 AM, GLShooter said: You have that backwards. BCA does the STONER barrels for Midway. Midway buts from various companies and has them labeled STONER. It's like the old Ted Williams thing at Sears. Their using STONER as a pure to suck you in. Another example would be their magazines. I can't say what they'd do today but a few years ago the STONER mags were made by ASC. That's the brand, ASC, that I run 90% of the time and for me they are great quality. Greg I guess I may have gotten the one exception AR Stoner barrel. It is a 16" stainless .300 Black Out and a tack driver. Ive bought a couple of their 556/223 barrels for truck style guns as well. decently accurate but not to depend your life on. Ive bought their side chargers and liked them as well. Never bought anything assembled from them because I assemble my own. My suggestion, steer clear, especially in an AR10 style. I bought Criterion for mine, expensive but no issues or complaints.

GLShooter Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 BCA makes barrels that meet many shooters needs. That being said the percentage of out and out make your jaw drop group shooters is very small. You are a great example of that. One very good one and a couple so so yet you rotated up to a higher grade when you went to the big frame. I do like their side chargers for sure. Now I gotta go fix that mish mash of auto-correct!

Electrikoolaid Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I bought a 10.5 inch side-charging pistol upper from them a few weeks ago in stainless steel. It's loads of fun, makes a great truck minivan gun, and has been accurate enough for it's purpose of confronting Civil Unrest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pew-pew-lurker Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Had a few of their BCGs, no issues. I have put probably 500 -600 rounds through it and it still functions 100%. I like that they are more budget friendly as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlhneast Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I was severely tempted by BCA recently with a complete .450 Bushy rifle I think was less than $400. I built one on a Bushmaster 20" barrel and at less than 100yds is amazingly accurate so I thought "WTH' lets get a second Bushy" I am shooting 250gr ballistic tips and am well pleased with the results from my set up. I was curious about BCA's accuracy with a heavier pill but not really needing two Bushy's, I decided to pass. If your building a .308, I would definitely spend a few more bucks on a better quality barrel so you can reach out reliably. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flesh Wound Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 And I still have not been able to get to the range and test the 22 MAG upper I bought from BCA. In my defense I've been a bit busy with getting married and the holidays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a .22mag bolt rifle for hogs during small game at a Nat'l Refuge in Dixie Co. The Federal Wardens are pretty strict on rimfire and #4 or smaller shot in your possession. To the point of checking every shell not only in your firearm but in your vehicle as well. I have a two cylinder western style revolver that keeps the mag wheel in it. I also have a .CMMG 22LR conversion kit for my A2 clone or whichever one I want to stick it in. It only makes sense to have a .22mag upper, right? LOL!!!
