At least it waits until you’re done!
I’ve been lucky, my BCM, Bushmaster and Colt BCGs have all been “bulletproof”, none have broken...yet. I know it’s a matter of (a looong) time, but like shock absorbers and CV joints they will probably all fail at some point in their lives.
The only non stock things I do to my BCGs are the one piece gas rings (sort of like a metal key ring) and the stronger spring and donut under the extractor. I probably don’t need them, but since they’ve been working so well for so long I’m gonna stick with these changes.,
I have that spare BCG so it tags along in case of a failure. I’ve never needed it though.
You’re right about full auto M4’s, suppressed SBRs and AR guns that aren’t gassed right, those bolts take a pounding!
Stay safe!
