The only lower parts kit they sell on their website is a DPMS LPK.   LINK

People here are constantly saying "BCM", no matter the question or the answer, yet many of you guys seem to look down on DPMS lower parts kits.  Surely I'm not the only one who see a discrepancy in that logic.

If anybody can answer what LPK is installed in BCM lowers (knowledge, not conjecture, please), it would be appreciated.

Interested to know as well. They're uppers seem to be the best there is but I don't hear much about the lower internals.

If not for the weekend they will be along to tell you.

Maybe even they are surfing tonight.

Perhaps.  I'm not in a hurry.  If I can't find an answer in the next couple days here, I'll probably call them up and ask.

BCM does not offer a LPK (and no plans at this time).  BCM sources each part separately to build on a stripped BCM lower.

Hope that helps.
Thanks



Thanks for the reply.  I'm assuming you mean from a variety of sources?

Try looking at the BCM forum in the Industry Forum- I think this question was asked there in a discussion of their lower receivers. IIRC the reply was that the parts they use in their lowers are carefully selected, come from several sources, and that most of us wouldn't recognize the names of the suppliers, as they only sell to the industry, or something like that.
ETA: BCM posted the above replies while I was typing mine. At least it looks like I was fairly close.

So we still don't know what brand parts are installed in a BCM lower.  We just know they source them from other places.

Which could make good sense.  I'm fond of certain parts that RRA produces, and don't care for other parts they produce.  There are a lot of companies in this industry that most folks here would probably never otherwise hear of.

Yes.  To make a complete LPK, we use 3 shops to accumulate all parts, and one spring company.  (3 more shops to accumulate parts for the stock assembly)
And Magpul for the MOE trigger guard




Very cool, that's good to know.  Thanks for the fast reply.

Wherever you are getting them from the consensus seems to be they are top quality.  If you would offer an LPK that you put together from your sources I'm sure it would be a hot item.

The main thing to know is they stand behind their product and are a site sponsor
and take the time to answer questions directly here.

If there was an issue I'm sure they would take care of it.

The shops are not retail brand shops.  They are machine shops whom supply the the AR industry.




I think a lot of people here have trouble grasping that concept.

Mr Bravo Co if you would use your suppliers and package under your name.It would sell a ton of them fast as lightening.I'm serious if you offered that LPK I would buy it in a heartbeat.You would sell a million offer it with or without magpul trigger guard.Do it I'll be the first to buy one. PM me I'll assemble them for you and we'll put your name on it
