Been trying to reach you via email regarding a BCG I received from you. Are the PSA Complete Full Auto 5.56 BCG supposed to come with an O Ring for the extractor? Mine did not come with one. Not a big deal but wanted to check. Order 00089833.

Thanks

Neither of mine have the o-ring...........and they both shoot fine.

I have two. One has the o-ring one does not. Both eject fine.

Not a big deal and agree that it will eject fine without the o-ring. Description on website stated it came with it and it didn't. But it would be nice to have if it supposed to come with one.

Just received mine today from PSA.

It does NOT have the o-ring either.
I agree with you. Since the description lists it, then the o-ring should be included
Other than that, I'm happy with the price and product. It's a spare.

Care to chime in PSA?

Did those of use without the o-ring get the premium or standard version? I'm assuming premium as the standards have been out of stock for some time now.

I know my HF upper said it came with premium bolt and BCG.

No, mine did not come with an o-ring.



However, the BCG for my AR pistol from PSA DID come with an o-ring, which is expected since shorter systems can sometimes have extraction issues.




Both of my PSA rifles (well, one is legally a pistol) are flawless, I say just go shoot it, and order some o-rings from brownells if you really want one.

These can be ordered through McMaster Carr. Part number is 1201T16 and they are about $5 for 50. Not sure what it would cost to ship. I believe it is the #006 viton o-ring but please double check if you do plan to order some.  I have a couple from BCM that I ordered in the past for my AR Pistol.

Nope, Just obnoxious comments that don't have anything to do with the original topic.
Explaining the point about product selection from advertised specifications and delivery would be useless to some.

BTW,  Palmetto customer support came through and contacted me to send some o-rings

Great Job Palmetto customer service!

I just bought another BCG because I didn't want the o ring... If the spring is one of the newer stronger mil-specs, you don't want the o-ring.

I wanted a FA group for my 20" target rifle. Too much extractor tension can affect precision accuracy...
I wish I had read this thread 20 minutes ago. I would have ordered the bargain priced BCG from you guys.

For example Bravo Company furnishes an 0-ring, but not installed. They clearly state that it is usually overkill.
