BCM - high pressure tested and magnetic particle inspected. also comes with the BCM extractor spring, black insert, and O ring.
ETA - you sure the Larue is heavier? Why would one auto carrier be heavier than another?

Just heavier in comparison to the AR-15 carrier in my RRA right now...I'm no expert but I thought the M-16 carrier was a tad heavier.

The BCM is an auto carrier as well. Why don't you give us more details on your rifle?

DETAILS: RRA 16" mid-length to LINK pictures and such
If I could afford to just buy a new rifle I would, but I have to settle for upgrading at the moment

I don't see anything lacking on that rifle. If I were you I'd keep shooting the Rock River BCG and get the BCM as a spare.
ETA - you could look into adding a BCM extractor upgrade kit if you want to improve your current BCG |

Denny's GTS Thunerbolt should be in there too. I'm using one in my 16" mid Denny/GTS Operator .
Love it.. I've had the BCM bolt carrier group,,LMT Enhanced,,,no La Rue though. Can't go wrong with either a GTS or BCM |

I would go bcm due to the problems i have had with my larue m-16 bcg. I gives me a ftf every time i try to shoot it in full auto.
 just my .02, but i do hate that BCM logo on them, i would truly buy one from noveske.

I just ordered a BCM for my RRA M4. I also ordered the extractor spring upgrade for the RRA Bolt because I will have it as a back up, 'H' Buffer, VLTOR Mil Spec tube kit, and BCM Gunfighter charging handle. I'm going to get the RRA dialed in as right as possible and also properly stake the castle nut. I learned a lot from the guys at M4carbine.net. They basically shamed me into all this!!!
In fact, I am re-doing my Bushmaster as well. I put on a Colt M4 upper, extractor spring upgrade, 'H' buffer, and Mil Spec tube as well. I just dumped about a chest of gold dubloons into 3 black rifles. My Colt 6940 is my work gun and it is off the hook crazy insane bitchin! |

I don't see a problem with what you have now, why not shoot the RRA and get a BCM as a back up. Where are you getting the larue bolt? Last I had checked, they didn't sell them any longer.

There is no way I would swap out the RRA carrier unless the bolt breaks. If the bolt broke I would buy a new one. I'm a real low speed high drag type of operator though.

M4QUADRAIL Yea I'd keep it as is. Anyway to get an unmarked bcm you would need to buy it in parts. IE order the bolt and carrier separate. The BCM letters on the carrier start to wear off pretty quick so I wouldn't worry about it. Anyway both bcg's should be good but the bravo one is hp and mp tested where I believe the larue one is not. |

I didn't answer your poll because I would go for either one, they're both good to go from previous threads about them.
Myself, I ended up with the BCM auto BCG without the logo back then when they didn't have the logo yet, at that time I was also looking at the LaRue BCG but it was not available. One of the LaRue staff answered my question about who made their BCG and they told me that it was the same FN supplier. If you ever end up with a LaRue and you have a carbine gas system AR, I would recommend getting the BCM extractor upgrade kit. |
