FAQ

What does a BCG do in an AR-15?

In an AR-15, the BCG serves a critical function in the operation of the firearm. It moves within the upper receiver, loading a new cartridge into the chamber, firing the cartridge, extracting the spent casing, and ejecting it out of the firearm.

What is the difference between a semi-auto and a full-auto BCG?

The main difference lies in their design. A full-auto BCG has more mass towards the rear of the carrier, which allows it to interact with an auto sear in a fully automatic rifle. Semi-auto BCGs lack this extra mass. However, both semi-auto and full-auto BCGs can be used legally in semi-automatic rifles.
