If Kavanaugh gets confirmed and I combine this with a 40 or 60 round magazine, will I cause a rift in the space-time continuum?
BillyBadassBgRg on Sep 11, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes, but the rift will only occur if you use a 1:7 twist barrel and premium ammunition that exceeds 3000 fps at the muzzle. I may have to recommend at least an 18 inch barrel to ensure velocities that will disrupt the time-space continuum under stated conditions given this formula: f ′ = 2 π ℏ ( E ′ 1 − E ′ 0 ) = f ( 1 − G M R c 2 )
Will this bolt turn my ar into a full auto gun? Or what else would I need to make that happen. New to this and was just curious thanks!
Mckay B on Apr 13, 2018
BEST ANSWER: absolutly. ALSO, I understand that taking out your buffer spring will help your bolt carrier move much faster back and forth. It would also help prove you shouldnt own a gun faster.
Will it make my M4 automatic?
Little Joey on May 27, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Only if you have the shoulder thing that goes up. Also, it may require you to make pew noises to jump start ot.

James H on Apr 14, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Where do you guys come from? Just funny to read some of the questions. You got no business with a MSR.
will this also work with .223 wylde?
edge1916 on Apr 16, 2018
BEST ANSWER: .223 wylde, is a description of a chamber profile...It is not a caliber of ammo....This BCG, will work with.. .223...5.56mm, and .300 blackout ....You do have to have a different barrel, for the .300 blackout.....all the other AR-15 parts will work with all 3....
what does this part do? is it the part that folds up?
nite f on Jan 4, 2019

Will this work the same for 300 blackout as well as 556?
Madison B on May 13, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes, a 5.56 BCG will work in a .300 (Obviously, use a .300 barrel.) The rest of the AR can use standard 5.56/AR parts. Check out this article on alternative AR calibers:
Check out Pew Pew Tactical's read on "Best Alternative AR-15 Cartridges and Calibers"
Who makes these carriers and bolts? Thanks
Mandrin on Aug 21, 2018
BEST ANSWER: The largely subjective, but widely accepted answer is Toolcraft. PS has brought a lot of companies in to the fold over the last few years. As they are not publicly owned, there is no way to know for sure. That being said, I absolutely do not believe PSA would try and and claim that a bolt was HPT/MPI when they sell so many that aren't. Point being, who makes it is irrelevant so long as it's a quality product.
How does this differ from a standard bolt carrier?
Gavin E on Oct 22, 2018
BEST ANSWER: it doesn't. same thing.
Question Would a fotech echo 2 trigger work with my current bolt carrier or do I need buy this auto bolt carrier?
Mitchell B on Sep 19, 2018
BEST ANSWER: This totally depends on which echo trigger you have, the early version required a special bcg that was notched and the new one just requires a plain fa bcg.
Are these checked for correct headspace ?
Raymond B on Sep 27, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Head Spacing is specific to your barrel and the bolt. You will need to check it with your barrel receiver. Most if not all New Barrels and New Bolts will be fine.
Can this replace just a normal semi auto bolt carrier. I'm getting deep sc
ratches on my round when my carrier slides over the shell in the mag ?
Mike B on Oct 10, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes this can replace a "normal semi auto bolt carrier," although I suspect that if you're scratching your brass it may be due to.something else. I recommend you check your mag and mag release to ensure they aren't the issue before you replace the BCG.
Will it work with a semi auto?
MartyG on Nov 17, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Absolutely. Being a full auto bcg means it is designed to be strong enough and capable of being used in a fully automatic version also. I've used two of these in separate builds. And, they function flawlessly.
Will this work in an ar15 pistol?
Cody P on Aug 21, 2018
BEST ANSWER: It should work in any standard ar pistol, carbine, and rifle

Will this work on a S&W AR15?
jonny on Oct 14, 2018
BEST ANSWER: yes,as long you’re using it for a 5.56 , 223 or 300 blackout ,mine has been working great

Gerry on Sep 26, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Yes. This bcg works for the semi auto 5.56. It works very good.
Is this better or as good as the Nic. Bor. BCG?
Titt. on Oct 15, 2018
BEST ANSWER: the C158 NiB version is easier to clean after use but feature wise, they are nearly identical.
fwiw: PSA offers 3 different NiB bcgs.
Will this work with part number

Andrean D on Dec 1, 2018

Adding this BCG to a standard AR, will it be necessary to have an adjustable gas block?

So I have a Aero Precision upper and lower. How well does this bolt work with other manufacturers parts?
Krazee M on Nov 16, 2018
BEST ANSWER: The AR15 is extremely modular. Quality parts from Aero and Palmetto will work perfectly fine together.
whats the difference between a full auto and semi auto bcg. Will this bcg work with either?
Jerry G on Oct 26, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Because this BCG is full auto it is a little heavier than a sporting or light weight BCG. The extra weight gives a slightly longer lock up time. Because it is full auto if you had a legal full auto lower you could use this BCG in that lower and it would be capable of full auto fire in that mode.The bottom rear ( front )of the BCG is not cut out.
Will this work in my Colt SP1 chamber for 223?
Tim M on Sep 24, 2018
BEST ANSWER: yes, colt sp1 or sp2... these fit and function great.
Is this an actual full auto bcg? As in will it trip the sear?
Charles L on Mar 12, 2019
BEST ANSWER: It is a full auto "capable " bcg. If, you have a full auto trigger and safety it would function without issue. But, using this bcg does NOT make your weapon fully automatic.

Missing gas key stakes. Became loose after 15 rounds.
Bought two of these bcg. One did not have the staking on the gas key. Didn't notice till I went to the range. After about 15 rounds the gas key became loose and caused fte and ftf issues. Waiting to here back from customer service.

However, I'm very happy with the other one.

Very disappointed in QC and customer service!
The one I got the bolt was hard to move in and out of the carrier, it had a gritty feeling to it. Called customer service to try to get a new one mailed out to me quickly but that not going to happen it will be about 2 weeks before I get a bcg back to me , customer service also set me up for a repair instead on a return/swap ,the rapair would take longer ,after looking at the email for shipping label and instructions I notice I was set up for the wrong one .so I called back and the lady got me set up for a swap but she for got to email the instructions ,so I had to call back again and get set up for the swap not the repair service. Now I have to buy a bcg locally to have it in time ! This was my 1st order with psa,I also order a complete lower that will be here soon.i was very disappointed in QC and customer service.

Perfect mil-spec BCG.
Perfect mil-spec BCG. If you’re looking for a BCG that just works, look no further. I’ve got roughly 1,500 rounds on mine with no issues whatsoever.
