Depends on what you mean by "make". Their uppers are usually in high demand so when they have them in stock you gotta move pretty quick before they sell out... I know they are assembled in house with mil-spec parts etc. I think they out source their barrels, upper/lowers and BCG like other big name companies.
why not just sign up for the in-stock notification? seems a lot less stressful than constantly having to remember to look at the site and check.
Just did it. Didn't realize there was an option if I clicked on ad to cart. Thanks. Hopefully someone can answer a question I have. I want the 11.5" with the 10" KCR rail. One option is an "enhance light weight upper for $663 and the other is with the hammer forged barrel for about $70 more. Juts curious what the enhanced light weight upper is as compared to a regular upper. They also make an enhanced light weight that is fluted which had been available but does not appeal to me.
I'm not a fan of BCM. I have seen and heard of some minor QC problems that BCM wouldn't fix. An example is a new scratched-up upper. My friend tried to return the upper and they gave him a really hard time saying "it doesn't affect the functionality of the upper". I realize that these are not pieces of art, but a tool, but give me a break. If you spend good money on their product, you should get a "NEW" looking upper.
I much prefer Daniel Defense. They are comparable in functionality with DD having superior customer service and fit and finish. I know this first hand, as they are a joy to deal with. I sent my rifle in twice for something that ended up being my fault (my old Colt mags were not feeding correctly). I told them and offered to pay them back shipping. They refused and sent me some free DD swag instead. Great guys.
YMMV.
First I've heard of someone having an issue with BCM. I think you are just bitter and trying to justify spending too much money on dd and want someon else to take the hit you did.
Not a fan either. A guy at the range with us had one and it was malfunctioning. He blamed his ammo. My DTI ran all day.I'm not a fan of BCM.

Anybody know the story on BCM? They have been OOS on all of their optics ready 11.5" uppers for over a month now? Do they make their own uppers or buy from someone? 10.5" are also OOS. They do have 12.5"in stock but would really rather have the 11.5"
Though I'd pretty much decided on the BCM 11.5" upper, I got an email from DSM arms today and they have a 10.3" DD upper for $230 more. And looking in my RRA catalog they have a 10.5" upper they call a pistol upper, don't know the difference, for $600 so could probably order for less. I've read so much on uppers my head is spinning. Just looking for one that functions. For the time being it will go on an M16 until I get my SBR built and approved. Already sitting on a RRA lower and LRPK from a few years ago so RRA upper may be nice if they work.
