The Great Bolt Carrier Group Shortage of late 2020

rockstarr · Feb 6, 2021

I think it’s hilarious that psa is now asking for damn near as much money for their nb garbage bcg’s, as what a solgw phosphate carrier is selling for.

Psa was really good to the community at one point , even if their quality was questionable, but I think they need to get over themselves now.

On second thought, upon checkout I found they only take USPS money orders . Not for me.

Guess that's why they are still in stock.

Yep. I just don't have $140 to throw down a dark hole at this point.

Palmetto state has tool craft BCGs in stock

Ammo Jon beat me to it

I picked up one of these for a rifle I built with spare parts.

NBS is AR15discounts’s house brand. I’ve had good luck with their stripped uppers in the past so I gave this a try. I’m actually very impressed. Shipping was free and tax wasn’t added so it was $149.95 out the door.

I heard somewhere that these are made by White Label Armory but I am not sure. Either way a decent buy for today’s times.

Do you remember what they were asking for those BCG's?

This may have already been posted, but White Label Armory is supposedly an OEM manufacturer for major retailers. They are in full production mode and regularly have updates in their stock. Here is the BCG page (https://whitelabelarmory.com/ar15-parts/ar15-bolt-carrier-groups/) - I signed up to be notified of updated stock and picked one up a few weeks ago.

If you can wait, fine. They aren't raping you. They(manufacturers)are paying their people overtime to keep up with demand. If you don't need it, then fine. don't buy it. These are not unfair prices, given the current situation.

I'm right there with you bud. 60 bucks over what they use to cost isnt bad considering supply and demand, overtime for workers, and any material price increase. it took me two months to find an areo bcg on spicetac.

If you need it you need it, and it you shop smartly ive only noticed uppers,lowers, and bcgs affecting the price of my builds. For 60 bucks sell some junk collecting dust or go on the romin diet for a week, y'all going to bring up $70 mosins and $99 sks too while we are talking about price jumps.

Sorry for the late reply. I do not recall off hand but it wasn't outrageous. A friend called me and was in the shop and was asking if he should grab one.
