Griffin Armament Enhanced Mil Spec Bolt Carrier Group (BCG)

Why a BCG from Griffin Armament? The simple answer is that these BCGs are the best we have used in our ten years of military service and over a decade of industry involvement. When you look at a top shelf product you can see its quality. These are the best mil spec pattern there are. The Griffin BCG combines an 8620 carrier, 9310 Bolt, 4340 cam pin and extractor. All the proper heat treats, the correct shot peen, and the often neglected post heat treated grind are present. In a market filled with cast component BCGs, all components are billet machined and all surfaces receive a finish pass in machining for improved surface smoothness. There are varying degrees of quality in Melonite QPQ finishes. These BCGs went to 4 finishing houses for selection of the finish provider, cost not being a consideration. The result is a deep black finish with remarkable lubricity. These are assembled to the current military technical data package with permatexd and properly staked carrier keys. They also feature the current 15,000 round extractor spring design and a Crane O ring for reliable extraction in extreme conditions. We ran these thousands of rounds in multiple manufacturers rifles throughout the T&E phase without a single malfunction. From first sight through months of use to the final product launch we have remained excited to bring this BCG to market. This is the only BCG that has ever excited us and that is why we have chosen to offer it to the people we care about, our customers. Many Metallurgists consider AISI 9310 alloy steel as an acceptable bolt material and substitute for Carpenter 158 (Carpenters brand name AISI P6 Spec mold steel). However for the M4 purists we offer our BCG with the optional Carpenter 158 bolt made to current Mil-Spec including phosphate rather than Melonite treatment which comes with the 9310 bolt.

The Griffin Armament EBCG is unmatched in quality and precision. You really can’t beat it for the price. I am extremely particular about the parts I use and I have searched high and low for good BCG’s and this one definitely makes the cut!

This carrier is built very well. Excellent finish. However the pictures are a bit misleading on the finish. It looks kind of like a black chrome in the pictures, but it is just black. Which is not a huge deal. It’s still pretty slick. Good gas key staking. I haven’t had any function issues. It cycles fine with no malfunctions so far. Also maybe 15-20% overpriced. So for 15-20% less I would have given 5 stars.

The Griffin Armament Enhanced Mil Spec Bolt Carrier Group is made with high quality steel and machined to an excellent level of precision. The melonite finish is durable and I have not noticed any signs of wear after the first 1000 rounds. Finally, having the griffin emblem showing when the dust cover is open lends an extra level of cool to the rifle.-Marshall

I have heard of the Griffin product quality and they dis nit disappoint with their BCG. Optics Planet shipped it very qyuckly. I have had troubles with two other BCG's. Don't waist your money on bargain product. The Griffin quality will save you money over time. I have a few thousand rounds with it, in many harsh conditions, suppressed and unrepressed and have not had one issue.

Needed a BCG. Giselle is pretty much obsolete when it comes to BCGs. I went with this brand because they also make suppressors. I figure if they can handle suppressed, then it should be more than adequate. Plus the idea is kinda girly. I don’t know if it is chrome lined or not. I don’t believe it is.

It works as it should. zero jams out of 3 30 round mags. My only take away is the item wasn't the color I ordered. Easy install and it feeds as it should. It feeds the .300 Round with eas zero problems so far.
