[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Another newbie q. Whats the general opinion on this bolt from Ares for 89.00

Posted: 11/24/2014 9:49:53 AM EDT

Gathering parts for my first AR build (well actually building 3 at once LOL.... I think someone called it the black rifle disease)

Looks like a good deal, but I'm leery if its too good to be true.

229 marked down to 89

I have two BCGs from ares. They are the older models but they are good to go. Never had a problem

I don't remember seeing NiB BCGs this cheap. I bought one.

I bought one a few weeks ago. Haven't installed it yet.

It's destined to go into a 10.5" pistol currently under construction.

It is a purdy piece of stuff, though.

Good stuff. Great price for a top of the line NIB BCG.

Personally I wouldn't touch them and I certainly wouldn't start off with three, nothing to gain for me. That second rate sales description didn't help any.

I prefer bullet-proof guns.

I do, Midway was dumping NiB BCG's for less than $100 and the reviews were not pretty. I can not remember manufacturer but the reviews were bi-polar, maybe just a bad batch.

I bought 2 a couple of months ago and they are fine. Sorry others have had problems.
