Safecracker got a 300 AAC upper from them and gave it good reviews.

wishes he were spike
Did you just call me a shill? I have zero connection to BCM other than I've bought stuff from them and have been very happy with it.
No I think he was providing an explanation for when I asked what a shill was
Good to know
Honestly, this gun is just going to be a range toy, as much as I'd love to put on a top of the line, expensive upper, I just can't justify it.
I'm gonna try one out. Worst case, I'm out 500 bucks and I learn a lesson. Then I'll just let the lower sit until I can grab a high quality upper or something

Did you order your upper from them?
I was going to order an upper from Midway until I saw your post. I talked to the people at Radical firearms about upgrading the A2 birdcage to an AAC 51T and they said they could do it, overall they took their time and where very helpful.

No. I haven't ordered yet. I will next week though
I went through their Facebook page more and it seems everyone is very happy with them as a company and their products. Seems like a good upper for a range toy, which is all I want. And a company to stand behind it

They actually have a really good deal going on right now. Check it out. This is copied from their Facebook page....

I was looking for the 16" 300 Blackout upper to go on my recently upgraded 80% lower.

They do seem to have good prices for the specs.

Make sure you post when you get your upper.

I dunno. IMO you could build a nicer setup for just a bit more money. A complete pistol upper with name brand components would run you just under $399. When you start adding parts to theirs the price comes up really quick.
Buy it build it know whats in it. Not trying to be an ass but that handguard they offer is F'n HEAVY. It is a UTG an it is a boat anchor. Trust me I have been down this road.
I am all about saving ducketts but in this case there are better deals if you are willing to assemble the parts yourself.

Understandable. Building my first AR was a bit daunting at first but in the end turned out to be very rewarding. I can definitely see the attraction in ordering it and dropping it on an already assembled lower as well.
Maybe my next one, I'll assemble everything. But since this is my first AR, I think building the stripped lower and just dropping on a complete upper is best.
I have no gun experience other then field stripping my M&P handgun and putting it back together. Haha

If you where building an upper from scratch what would be your build list?
I just finished building an 80% lower, so an upper would be another learning experience.

please let us know what you think about your new upper evo. I'm in the exact same boat as you it seems. I fail to see the point of spending upwards of 1k for a pistol upper assembly, and I came across radical firearms and then searched here.
