Im looking at build yet another rifle and was wondering what are the reasons to go with Bravo Company?  I have no experience or much knowledge of this company.

Excellent customer service.  Top shelf product.  A company that understands what it takes to build an AR15 pattern rifle correctly: proper materials, proper assembly methods and proper testing.  On top of that they offer numerous off the shelf configurations as far as barrel lengths, gas systems, barrel types and pre installed rail systems.  In short, I can't think of any reasons not to go with Bravo Company.

Was reading a thread on here the other day and the owner of BCM called my buddy back within 5 minutes of my buddy sending an email to their tech dept.

Amazing to say the least.

This. Quality of Colt but more configurations and a lifetime warranty.

Pretty much the same price range as Colt.  Going rates varry no more than $100 for similarly equipped models.

They both cost the same. I can find 6920s all day long for $1100 which just so happens to be the same price as a complete BCM. During the buying craze you would be right but now there's no longer the

gap in price.

I've got no dog in this fight at all, but thought I'd share my experience.

I read and read, and finally decided to order the BCM mid-length w/ BCG and gunfighter CH.

Ordered it Thursday, was at the house Tuesday. Everything packed up nice and tight, free hat, and just like I wanted.

Not a mark on it.

Honestly, I'm kinda pissed I didn't have to use the legendary customer service, but everything just looks great, and feels like quality stuff.

If they were alot more than others I would have second thoughts, but man, you just need to do it.

They are comparable, and I cannot find one thing on my upper group to complain about.

Like I said in the BCM forum, believe the hype. Colt quality, and reasonable prices.

Top Tier equipment. Factor in you have one of the best fighting carbines made by a great bunch
without the arrogance and crop circles, I'd put BCM at the top of the AR heap.

Plus, you get a free hat.

Because the logo is cool?  I have never owned any BCM products, but the word is they are top notch in all areas. Hard for me to get past the logo, but I am considering one of their middy uppers after I check out the one I am going to talk my freind's dad into getting CHF barrels take me to a special place....

CTbuilder1 pretty much hit the nail on the head. I can't speak for the quality of their customer service as I haven't had to use it yet but I've been very happy with the parts I've got from them and their shipping times.

BCM is easily the best quality for the money IMO.

Best quality out there for what it is, and you get small-business one on one customer service if you ever need it, which I doubt you will.

Plus, Paul is one HELL of a good guy.  I had the opportunity to take a Magpul carbine course with him.  He's a monstrous former Marine who actually goes out and uses his gear, he is a practicioner in the truest sense.  Hes also very passionate about what he does and refuses to cut corners.

Between BCM and Colt, I'll take BCM all day every day.

The only thing I would add to the numerous well articulated reasons already stated is that BCM supports guys like Pat Rogers of EAG.  He and his students have T&E'ed some BCM guns (some with round counts approaching 30k) with very good results.

I'm not sure I'd choose BCM over Colt (except where Colt doesn't make the configuration  I want), but there is no doubt BCM makes a super quality product. Colt and BCM deserve to be discussed in the same breath, and that's saying something. But BCM wins hands down on flesxibility
