Overview BCM has been our go-to for many years because they do an outstanding job of balancing quality, price, and overall performance. These standard uppers still feature the fit and finish you’ve come to expect from BCM without all the bells and whistles of the MK2 receivers at a lower base price. While we thoroughly enjoy the improvements found in the MK2 uppers, the cost/performance ratio of the standard upper receivers is hard to beat. What’s Included 1x BCM Standard Upper Receiver Group 1x BCM Bolt Carrier Group 1x BCM M-LOK QD Mount 1x M-LOK Picatinny Section Allen Keys 14.5″ models are not pinned and welded from the factory, and the A2 device that comes with these uppers is not long enough to do so. You’ll need a trusted gunsmith to do this once you install the muzzle device of your choice. Specs UPPER FEATURES Manufactured by Bravo Company MFG, Inc.
