DPMS is the worst.
Young/LBC is the best. The LBC is made for them by Young. You can find them in the EE. |

I've got two of these in my Sabre Defence uppers. They are very high quality, clean up VERY easily, and I've never had a problem with them! |

The Young/LBC is a great carrier. Part number 939-000-001 at Brownells.
Smith Enterprise also makes a nice one. Part number 851-110-016 at Brownells. They are both machined from 8620 steel, hardened to Rc 58. |

THanks - for some reason I thought the SEI was no longer made. Added to my favorites list.

I’d like to build a retro type rifle too and have a chrome plated carrier.
I used to have a PWA parts rifle that had a YM fluted NM carrier in it and it was great, but I don’t care for the fluting. Reading about their slick side carriers that don’t have a cut out for the ejection port cover makes that a non-option. Going to the SEI website, it doesn’t look like they’re offering their chrome B/BC parts any longer, Brownells does list them though. ponomo, you mentioned the Ameetec carriers are made by young (which sounds great), and Praetorian55, you mentioned having a couple. Got any pics you could share? I’m wondering if these Ammetec units have flutes, a cutout for the ejection port cover, are M16 or AR-15, and have a covered firing pin (a la M16). I’d really appreciate any help or insight you guys might have, thanks. |

I've got a couple of the Bear carriers and new-argirl has one of the Young. Those three guns are among the most solid feeling guns we have. I'm sure the carriers alone arent whats making the difference. But Im am pretty sure its a part of it.
I've been told someone sent their bolt/carrier off to RoBar to have them MP3'd. Said it felt slick in the gun, and was super easy to clean. I think I might like to try that with one of mine. I've never seen shot or seen a MP3's bolt/carrier though. Anyone think of a good reason not to? |

======== That is correct. They made over 300,000 chrome bolt carriers and bolts in the 1980's and 1990's for Uncle and his friends. |
