Bear Creek Arsenal M16 Profile BCG – 5.56 NATO – Black Nitride – BCG-15
The Bear Creek Arsenal BCG-15 is a high-value, professional-grade complete bolt carrier group designed for the AR-15 platform. Engineered for maximum durability and smooth operation, this BCG features a full-mass M16 profile, which provides the necessary weight for reliable cycling in both suppressed and unsuppressed rifles. The carrier is machined from 8620 steel and finished with a Salt Bath Nitride (Melonite) coating. This advanced treatment creates a surface that is harder than chrome and exceptionally slick, reducing the need for heavy lubrication and making cleanup significantly easier after high-volume range sessions.
The bolt itself is crafted from 9310 alloy steel, offering roughly 7% more strength than standard Carpenter 158 steel to ensure a longer service life under high-pressure loads. Every unit undergoes Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) to verify that the steel is free of microscopic cracks or defects. The gas key is properly staked with Grade-8 hardware to prevent loosening under recoil, and the bolt is finished in manganese phosphate for added corrosion resistance. Whether you are performing a budget-friendly build or replacing a high-mileage part, the BCA BCG-15 delivers "duty-ready" performance at an entry-level price point.
Includes: (1) Complete M16 Profile Bolt Carrier, (1) 5.56/.223/.300 BLK Bolt Assembly, Firing Pin, Cam Pin, and Retaining Pin.
