I like Young Manufacturing. If you get it from Rainier Arms, they will properly stake the carrier key for you.

Colt, but Young Manufacturing is a good second choice from what I hear.

Young NM or Les Baer.  Both made to the same Young patent.  If you want a standard "GI" configuration, then Smith or Young non-NM are the best.

You might want to try  www.failzero.com  slicker than chrome and more durable.

Thanks for every ones input. I think I going to go with a young's chromed "GI" BCG.

Is there anything special I should know about using a chrome BCG?

Still run it WET with lubricant.  Less expensive than the FailZero. Probably a little less slick too.  Original Eugene Stoner video on YouTube shows that he specified a chromed bolt in the original AR-10 he designed.
