Home Forums Hunting & Shooting AR and Tactical Rifles New truck gun !

How it shoots will be the deciding factor.
Go ahead and laugh, but for 242 bucks total, I'll see how it works.
It's a 16", BCA stainless, m4 contour, carbine gas, 1:8 twist.
A red dot isn't going to work for me, and before I buy something else, I'll see how it shoots, so I mounted up a Simmons 2-7 on it.
Had a lower with a side folder sitting around, waiting for an upper, identical to my 10.5" pistol, except with a magpul stock.
I like it. Fit and finish are perfect.
Cycled a few rounds outside through it by hand, and everything went just fine.
I'll shoot it tomorrow with 55 gr fmj's, and 60 gr V Max's.

Nice

Let us know how it shoots. Damn, that was dirt cheap.

If nothing else, I'll bet it shoots at least MOLR (Minute of Living Room)......

Looks good!

Well, I got out before it got too hot.
I brought some Freedom Munitions, 55gr reman fmj's, and HSM, Reman, 60 gr V Max's.
Set my box, sat in my chair and laser read 100 yards on the money.
Looked through the bore, and got the crosshairs about in the middle of the box.
Put a mag with 55gr fmj's in, and pushed the bolt released.
Oohhkaayyy.. !! It chambered a round, 1st good sign.
Aimed at the orange dot, and slowly squeezed the military weight, 2 stage trigger... ain't no jewel or single stage, 3.5 pounder like in my other AR's..
Gun goes off. I'm not feeling any pain, and my hands are ok.
Yay, BCA didn't blow up !!
Looked at about 3 - 4 o'clock, and there lays a piece of brass, right in the ejection zone. Aimed again, and fired 2 more shots.
Gun recoils nicely, and no malfunctions in the 1st 3 rounds through this new, $242.00 upper.
I have a 2 - 7 Simmons scope mounted, can't see holes..
Here's the first 3 rounds out the barrel.

Made adjustments, next 3. Not too impressive so far.

I fired 2 more, after a few clicks, 8 shots through the barrel so far.
Ok, I decide to switch to the 60 gr V Max's.
1st 3... did I say this trigger sucks ??
It's getting hot, I'm sweating, and my back pain is firing up.
Walked down, and ok, I can shoot things at some ways away from me with confidence.

Make another click, or 2, here and there..
Took my time, breathe..... in and out, in, let out half, sqqquuuweeze the trigger, just like that 3 times.
Walk down, daaammmnnn....
I can like this !

It's getting HOT now, I'm sweating...
I'm done...
Well, almost, as an afterthought, I fired 3 more, fmj's.
They suck....

Debrief...
I like it alot.
It has a mild, springy recoil.
17 rounds so far, and a 242 dollar upper is shooting great, and no malfunctions.
I'd recommend an upper from BCA.

Looks to be a winner. It's already sent me to BCA's site to snoop around. Like I need another.

2 questions please;

- do the round holes on the handguard serve as push button sling swivel sockets ?

- What brand folding stock adaptor is that? Looks like it fits the receiver better than most.

I have no idea. Never looked at them as qd sling attachment points.
I have 2 m lok adapters inbound, with tear drop type swivels for clip on slings.
The folder, as with other parts, are Chinese made.
I'm not too proud to pay less money for non name brand parts from China.
Only thing I don't like about these folders, is no lock in the folded position.

Nice shooting. The 60 VMax is certainly the truth-teller (vs milsurp ball) regarding what the barrel is capable of.

Looks like it holds promise.

Don't feel to bad about the fmj not shooting tight because most i have seen are minute of bad folks.

Never did see fmj's shoot all that well, but I'm sure some do, somewhere. Just not for me.
I'm stocked with them for my AR pistol.
I just bought more 60 gr V Max's, for everyone else !

I'm on board with some Chinese parts that work as well. Currently using some Harris knock off bi pods that Harris should look at.

No problem if ya don't know the name of the folder or don't have time to stick a swivel in the hole. Just thought it might save some bucks on said adaptors.

Great low cost rig, color me interested.

Color me amazed.

Color you a chucklehead

gunzo,
The bipod you see on the gun, came from Amazon, with a m lok adapter, and double hooked sling.
Real cheap...
The other bipod laying on the table is an S series. Just in case the cheap one broke.
Nope, ...
Podlok, swivels, spring legs, etc...
It'll be just fine...

gunzo,
I tried a swivel, and it works just fine.

Cool. Considering M-loc adaptors are 15-20 bucks & in a fixed position, this is another win for your new upper IMO. Four front sling mount locations for no extra charge.

Good to know.

gunzo,
I bought one like this for my Grendel. The holes in the handguard must be for asteics, as a stud won't stay in.
So, I bought this to stay color coordinated !

Looks like your rifle shows pretty good promise with those 60gr Vmax loads. Thanks for sharing buddy..
