I don't see anything wrong with it, they sell a lot of those BCG's I buy mine from PSA and they are running strong. You are gtg with that BCG.
What makes you think it is the wrong one? |

I know its the right BCG, IE it will work. Just wondering if it was too cheap and crappy and after a couple thousand rounds have issues.
Most stuff I have done has been changing a factory guns around. This is the first true ground up build i have done. His 10/22 has started to shit the bed and only CCI MiniMags run it, and now those are beginning to have issues. Just don't want another problem child. |

I am really surprised you are having a problem with the 10/22 I own 3 of them and my first one I got for a Christmas present from my Dad over 45 years ago and have never had a problem with it at all and I have ran just about anything that you can think of through that gun, it eats anything I feed it? As far as the BCG, no it is not to cheap, I pay less than that for my BCG's that I get from PSA, I normally wait until they are having a sale on their premium blems and order 2 or 3 of them, that is what I have in all of my builds and I just finished up my 14th build today. So looking at what you are looking at, I would say, you are good to go. |

Slightly o/t but when was the last time you changed the recoil spring in that 10/22? Do you run it as wet as most people do their ARs? Before there was direct impingement, blowback operated guns were the ones known for getting nasty dirty and needing to be dripping wet with oil. |

I recently purchased one of these BCG from Brownells along with their .300 blackout barrels and I was pleased with the quality for the price. I put the upper together this last weekend and now I need to get to the range and give it a try. Just remember they have a lifetime satisfaction warranty on them so save your receipt in case there are any issues.

It should be fine. I doubt you will have any issues. People can have problems with $200 bcg's.
Brownell's doesn't make the BCG that same one is probably sold at other vendors for more $$$ Shoot it until you are confident in it. |

Check the chamber on the 10/22 for a carbon ring. Carbon can build up in 22 chambers and cause all kinds of failure to feed and failure to extract issues. |

Well the barrel made it through due to its heavy plastic packaging and the Other parts except the carbine wrench were in heavy duty plastic packing and were ok. The wrench is 10 bucks and a cheapo wrench just weird it was pushed through its bag like that.
They will pay for shipping back to them and a refund minus the shipping to get it to me. I will try something else. OH well had a guy setup tomorrow to put the UTG Keymod pro on, time the BCM Comp, head space, and function test for $40 would go pick it up Sat. Morning. OH well guess booger won't be shooting this weekend.

Sooo? How does "tell me if I bought the wrong bcg?" turn into "yeah my box was packed shitty now I hate my bcg?"
If you want a "pretty" bcg pay 2X the $, even get one with a fancy coating and a pretty logo. As far as the packing job, well, retards are employed everywhere these days. Sorry OP, I woulda shot the shit out if it. Edit: Sorry to hear you got screwed around. That is a hot mess, from the sound of it.Btw, I have good luck wirh AIM SURPLUS and DSA on my bcgs. Also have a PSA with a pretty logo that works fine 
Also, why start 2 seperate threads on this? Why not just keep it all in one? Curious. |

Got a label from Brownells printed out to return it. They are paying to ship it back and refunding the money. So everything is good on that end. Still have to find a BCG
Don't know what other thread you are talking about only one post started about the BCG. 
This morning I disassembled the carrier and checked the fit again. There is a dent in the lower right of the carrier rail area that seems to want to hang up in the upper. OH well!!!!! |

Not a thing wrong with Brownells, one of the top suppliers actually. Not the point tho, bcg in question looked fine imo. Just not frilly and logo plastered like alot of
mall ninjas think makes them a top tier warrior. EDIT: Before the shit hits the fan, I am not saying that all bcgs with a logo are shitty. Only that shiny finishes and logos dont mean shit if they are not reliable under fire. Dont like the cosmetics of it? Send it back, PSA has a sale on now. (With a logo).

so a bcg from one of biggest distributors (with a satisfaction guaranteed policy) in the U.S. might not be good enough for a heirloom but UTG stuff is?
BTW i looked for UTG stuff at Brownells and they don't carry any, hmmm...

Here let me level the ship. The other thread is not mine.
The point of the starting this thread was I was wondering if I bought to Cheap a BCG for the application. No problem with Nitrided stuff was going to order a BCM but they were out. SO I got a cheaper one thinking its only for my sons gun and its using a pencil barrel so no bump firing. Well it turns out it wasn't that it was cheap that was the problem it was that Brownells Screwed up the packaging and the Carbine Wrench got loose in there as well and made some 2 very big dents into the sides of the Bolt Carrier that impeded function. Brownells paid to ship back and I mailed it off yesterday and we are good. So where am I getting a BCG now. Well yesterday before work I ordered a BCM BCG from Brownells. So I am willing to give them another chance. Well see they screw this up, and if they do well then its so sorry charlie no more dealing with them. |

So I don't get it... OP, you said the other thread is not yours, but it has your pictures from the brownells review, which you say is yours.
So are those pictures ours or not? Also post some new pics of the damaged bcg, I don't believe a bcg could get mangled beyond use from loose packaging. |
|
|
|
Posted: 9/3/2016 1:54:53 PM EDT
[#27]
Suspect OP just wants a bcg that impresses others or makes him feel warm n fuzzy. Not a run of the mill boring one.
ETA: "Other guy" post says hes from Va. Your Brownells review says your from Va. This thread says your from Ga. The ship is not level. I call BS. |

I've ordered bcgs from cdnn and PSA recently, cdnn came wrapped in bubble wrap and PSA came in bubble wrap inside a cardboard tube. It is hard to believe Brownells just throws it in a box with other parts rattling around, but it's also hard to believe it could get damaged beyond superficial scratch's.

This is how it looked when I opened the box just 5 more of the green "AIR Bladders" that were busted deflated. Took this picture just in case Brownells needed proof. Under the ladder packs was where I found the little plastic baggy for the BCG. Tried to get pictures of the dents in the BCG but camera just couldn't handle it even on macro. YES I need a new camera.
Once again other thread is not me. If your that worried please have site staff do some kind of internet secret squirrel shit and they will tell you dude from "VA" aint me Billy Bob. I usually think before I post and don't post, but in this case the "thread not turning out as OP hoped" is fitting. OH WELL Righting the ship is not need as it appears it has already covering the mast head.

There are at least three companies using those air pillows now. I have had to send stuff back for damage for the same reason and yes stuff is just placed in the box with those air pillows on top and it slides around. The more that pop the worse they bang together.
Boxes are ridiculously over sized sometime also for what is in them. I figured it has something to do with standardizing shipping for the carrier and the rates. |
