Now this maybe old news to some people, but it was news to me. Might be some folks here that may be in the same boat. Last Friday I got an email from KM Tactical offering me these: https://kmtactical.net/product/nickel-boron-5-56-bolt-carrier-group-bcg/ Well, I thought it was a pretty good deal, and from looking at the picture they looked fairly shiny, and not like the dull looking ones that look like they've been coated with aluminum paint. Ask me how I know.
So I took a chance and ordered 2. 6 days later which is today, they show up at my front door! Talk about FAST! I'm Happy to say the least.
There are a lot of nickle boron bolts out there in the internet, but not that many under $100 from what I've seen. I was just about ready to fork out $120 for one. Glad I waited.
They don't shine like a nickeled Colt SAA, but they're shiny enough for me.
