As the arrival of my .260 tOBR draws near (I'm sure), I've been trying to figure out how I want to put together a 14.5" 7.62 upper set for it.  If I go for the barrel cartridge combo, I'd want a spare BCG (or at least bolt) matched for each barrel.  Since Larue doesn't sell BCG's, does anyone know if something like a "standard" aero precision .308 BCG will work with the tOBR?  I found a few threads regarding what people think might work, but nothing concrete.  Of course the best answer would be Larue offering to sell me a BCG, but I'm not holding my breath on that   Seems like offering a bolt with the barrel cartridge would be a good idea.  I'm sure I'm not the only one who likes to have a spare bolt or two sitting around.  Thoughts?

link you can get a bolt with this kit, I'd suggest calling the shop and asking what they can do for you.

I have dealt with Aero Precisions quality control on their .308's and it SUCKS.  I had an AERO factory matched assembled receiver, with a AERO BCG & RAINIER ARMS Match Grade barrel.  AERO claimed that ONLY their BCG will work with their receiver set & forward assist: IT DIDN'T.  The BOLT was not chamfered around the edges, was very sharp and angular and would shave the head & rim of brass IF IT PICKED IT UP and chambered it.  Ejecting was very weak as the ejector spring was weak.

I sold off that mess and swore I'd never deal with AERO again a year ago.

I bought a BCG from LaRue of the EE and its some superior stuff.  I might be tempted to sell it as its a spare for me SOLD in the EE to the next guy in line, and I am cleaning out my gunsafe of .308 AR's & focusing on other calibers.

Bump in hopes that someone from Larue will chime in.

Did you call the shop? Some things companies will do for people but won't put it in writing.
