Well, there's a first time for everything, and today - it's crushing disappointment. In BCM.
I've NEVER had a problem with a single piece of their kit, in 10 years of using it. From sling mounts to entire rifles - I've owned & used just about everything BCM makes. I ordered a mil-spec Gunfighter Mod 0 stock for this new build, but no matter HOW much I pleaded, cajoled, and HAMMERED, it would NOT fit a mil-spec DSA buffer tube. So I tried it on a mil-spec Kaw Valley tube. Ditto. So I tried it on a mil-spec BCM tube! Squat. Couldn't get it past the first hole on each tube.
Back to PSA it goes on Monday, for a refund. Reckon I'll go with a Magpul MOE SL instead. The BCM was actually $10 cheaper, but I have a line on a nice used Magpul for $45, so we'll see how that goes.
On the BRIGHT side, my Vltor SASE-2 endplate works splendidly! Very nice piece of kit!
