How good is Bravo Company Manufacturing?  I am looking for parts for a build, but i don't know anything about BCM.  It seems like there is a lot of BCM stuff out there, and guys seem to like it.  I'm not trying to shovel dirt, so haters stay away.  Just interested in overall quality and customer service.

BCM makes some of the best uppers you can get.

Colt quality without the rollmark or price essentially. True mil spec and customer service is great if you ever somehow have a problem. Pick out an upper you like and get on the email alert for when it's in stock.

I don't think you'll find any haters.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy anything with BCM name on it. As mentioned, Colt quality or better with a lower price tag. I don't think you'll find any bad remarks about them ANYWHERE.

Ive heard they are top notch, with prices to match..

The absolute best customer service I've ever received has been from BCM.

Ever.

And their products are good, their prices are reasonable, and their shipping is fast.

How's that for an endorsement?

At the top.  The owner Paul is also a stand up guy.

BCM is highly regarded by the majority around here as well as some of the more well known professionals in the industry.   Pretty much everything on my wishlist right now comes out of Paul's shop...

BCM uppers and BCGs are what my family has on the line.

There's five of us.

But, like those Florida/Georgia, Tenn/GT,,, families.

We are also a house divided...  1911/Glock.

I was still doing the advertising here when he signed up and talked to Paul a few times. He's really committed to doing things right and he takes care of business. If there is a problem (rarely) with anything he sells he takes care of it asap.



When I bought my lmt upper from him I had problems with the lmt buis I already had been using on another ar. It turns out LMT had a few buis that were out of spec. It worked on my Bushie, but not on my lmt upper. I told Paul that the upper was fine and that it was the buis I bought elsewhere, he said he would exchange it for me anyways.



Great guy.

Every single person I know personally that is into AR's has ordered from BCM.  Their gear is top notch, and the only issue (across 5 guys I know ordering from him) is my Dad got an out of spec charging handle.  It was taken care of quickly over email and a replacement was mailed immediately.

If it's in stock at BCM, that's where I order.

I love my BCM upper too.  I'm waiting for the BFH uppers to come out for my next build.

My middy and BCG arrived yesterday. It's perfect. I'm sighting her in today and then I'll get up some pics.

+ Eleventy billion for Paul at Bravo Company.

I ordered my LMT carbine upper from him a while back and and I love it.  I've since ordered quite a few small parts from him as well.  I once ordered a milspec stock mounting kit (tube, spring, buffer, castle nut, etc...) and they accidentally sent me a regular buffer instead of an H buffer.  I emailed Paul on a Friday night and he responded back to me at about 11:30pm PST (he works late!) and shipped out the correct H Buffer that I requested.  He also told me to go ahead and keep the regular buffer.  His customer service is great and I will not hesitate to buy from him again in the future.

Just repeating what others have said......I use a BCM middy upper and have bought pretty much all the stuff my rifle is composed of from either them or Rainier Arms (another great place to buy).    

Just ordered a magpul acs from them

19+ pages of pictures in the BCM upper thread in the AR discussions area.

For me three days is an average ship time for parts. About a week for uppers.

Buy with confidence. The only thing better then the products is the customer service.

All three of my order experiences with them have been very good.  I would not hesitate to buy from them again.
Each order arrived complete in 3-4 days after I placed it.

Anyone know of dealers in NE Illinois or better yet, SE Wisconsin?

Thanks!

Look two posts down from yours ...

Top notch gear, only the "fit and finish" idiots that free roam this forum find anything to bitch about BCM.

I just put it in USMC's thread in this subforum. I've put it a lot of places lately, I'm afraid people are going to start to say, "Yeah, yeah, we've seen that enough!"

meet paul at a gun show here in wisconsin. very friendly and informative. bcm products are reasonably priced. (and they did not price gouge during the initial rush!) i've only seen bcg prices go up.  they tend go out of stock very quickly, but this is a testament to their quality. recently ,however, they are able to keep a few upper in stock. (i guess most everyone is well armed now! ) and as a bonus, they give the wounded warrior project funding, which help my brother pay rent while he goes to schools, and for me they are a local company! i'm planning on doing the bulk of my next build through them.
