NBS .223/5.56 Bolt Carrier Group - Black Nitride - AR15-Bolt-Carrier-Group
In stock
The NBS .223/5.56 Black Nitride Bolt Carrier Group was designed with strength in mind. Starting with a 9310 Steel Bolt, which is aircraft-grade material, this bolt has a high core strength rating, a high fatigue strength, and a high hardenability rating. 9310 steel, when treated properly, is about 7% better than Carpenter 158 steel, so you know that you will have a dependable BCG, when you drop this into your rifle.
This NBS BCG (Bolt Carrier Group) has been Nitrided, so that it can provide a long-lasting experience, and provide a significant upgrade to your AR-15. These BCG’s have also been Magnetic Particle Inspected and have been made to Mil-Spec Standards. It also has Mil-Spec 8740 Steel hard-chromed Firing Pins, Mil-Spec Gas Keys with Grade-8 screws that are staked and sealed with Permatex No.3, and they have shot-peened case-hardened D2 tool steel extractors. Plus, with the AR15Discounts satisfaction guarantee, you can buy your AR build components without apprehension. Our guarantee says if you are unhappy for any reason, you can send it back to us within 30 days for a full refund. No worries.
NOTE- The Salt Black Nitride BCG offers the dark, subdued finish that doesn’t change the specs of the Bolt Carrier, but it still makes the outside of the Bolt Carrier harder. This treatment increases the longevity of the part, makes it extremely wear resistant and durable, and this treatment protects the part from corrosion.

FRT
Worked like it was supposed to. Had to order for my FRT. Can’t say the same for the FRT and the company that produced it.
USPerfect

USAR15 - M 16 bolt carrier
the Bolt carrier is awesome. i broke it down to make sure all is good, all ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐i also got the same make 20" barrel to make sure the ramps work together, smooth the cycle, the 20" barrel was Not Pined, a gun smith has to do that, so add 50.00 + to the cost of the barrel, i will only buy full uppers now ready to go, just clean oil and rock on,
USGREAT BCG
