Have a G19 stainless barrel for my Gen 4 G19 Love it and works great. Thinking about getting another one. Waiting for a free shipping deal to make the purchase
350 legend, After two years and around 200 rounds I started having mis fires, light indents on primers, took it apart and the firing pin is a soft metal, the striker end is flattened and the rear flange that contacts the bolt is worn and has a ring indent in it, never saw this in 25 years carrying M16s, M16A3s and the M4s, and they got a hell of a lot of use with no wear signs like this pin! Junk steel,,,
I'm on number 15 Bear Creek weapon just bought a new complete upper 450 bushmaster hope when I get it will be the best and no other can compare of quality and precision just give it a shot you will be sold
With that many lowers and uppers and still buying more lol I think that speaks to my feelings about BCA. I had an issue with one upper when I got it but they had me send it back to them and they promptly fixed the issue and returned it to me with no cost to me. So I can't complain they stood behind it and fixed it.
Mated with 1 Anderson lower that I built real tack driver 200 yards5 shots almost covered with half dollar would probably shoot better if I could love all my bear creek arsenal products never had any problems the second one my son mated to his bca lower from his 556 and he loves it too

Just purchased a 22LR complete upper, and a couple other goodies. Have been searching for a few days and ended up here. Normal price was very comparable to other sites but happened to find it on sale. Grabbed a few other items and look to continue shopping here in the future.

I have purchased from BCA before, my latest purchase was the AR-15 Upper Receiver Side Charger with BCG. I purchased this for a build/modification that I was doing on my AR-15. I went with the side charger because of the price and it came as a complete assembly. Now this side charger is a great addition for any build/modification. I say this because now my firing hand can work from one station and I can keep my eyes on the target as I work any malfunctions, magazine drops and clearing the firearm or just placing it on safe. If you are shooting for time/competition this would be a great upper receiver to look into. The staff is also great my side charger bolt assembly wasn't compatible with my AR-15 and right away the staff started working my concern without me having to turn in the entire assembly. I highly recommend BCA.
Tip for consumers:
Great Place to Purchase AR-15 parts what reasonable prices.

Being that I live in Texas, I haven't had the opportunity to physically visit their Bear Creek Arsenal's store. But, I do review their webpage several times a week. I'm a guy who prefers to actually hold the merchandise before buying it. I will soon visit their store.
Tip for consumers:
Visit their website often to see new and restocked items.

I discovered BCA while searching for a.357 SiG barrel for my G23. I was doubtful when I saw the low price, but took a chance, and I'm happy I did. The barrel fits snugly and has been 100% reliable for me, providing accuracy comparable to my OEM.40 barrel. It worked so well that I went back and bought the 9mm conversion barrel, which has been just as good.

If you're looking for a heavy hitter upgrade to your AR platform this is a knockout! The 12.7x42 cartridge is impressive to say the least. It uses a 7.62x39 bolt carrier group and standard 5.56 mags (with some follower modification necessary) a 30rnd 5.56 mag only holds 5 of these bad boys. I have modified mine to look as if it's from Boba Fett's arsenal. Bear creek made this super affordable and very reliable. Very fast shipping and excellent customer service. 10 out of 10! Will most definitely be purchasing more uppers from here.
I bought the Legend last year. I received it a lot sooner than I expected and was able to hunt with it. I put a vortex 1x8x24 and sighted it in. It was a dream shooting it, smooth as silk. Really like it, especially because of the right side charging. Thanks to BCA for making such a good quality gun at a great price and getting it to me before deer season. I have previously bought from BCA and I will buy from them again. They are a great company to deal with. I only gave them 5 stars because 5 was the limit. The only thing I WISH is BCA would mark the caliber on the side of the receiver like they do the.22 WMR

We have purchased a couple uppers. Process was easy and delivery before expected. I have to say the side charging feature is fantastic. Have both a gen 1 and 2. Didn't realize gen one could get better. Everything worked great out of the box, well after a quick teardow, clean and lube since I do that for anynew firearm. Never had to chamge a thing though. Thanks for making variety an option for the AR platforms.

They are pretty on point with expectations.

I have built several 6.5 Grendel's using the BCA Side Charging uppers with excellent results. They have and continue to operate smoothly and the customer service was excellent with very prompt delivery. I am now looking at building a 22-250 with the BCA upper.
Tip for consumers:
Be sure you double check your order before ordering to be sure you are getting the correct barrel and charging system.

I have a few BCA uppers and products and they work without failure or problems of any kind! BCA was the first to offer a side charging upper at a very affordable price and they continue to produce quality products at the best price you'll find anywhere!
Tip for consumers:
Don't bother searching for a better price because you won't find any.

I have purchased two uppers from BCA, both have been exceptional. My first build was a 6.5 Grendel for hunting deer and the second was a 223 Wylde for plinking metal. Shipping was fast and the products were well packaged. BCA offers some of the best mid-range budge friendly hole punchers out there. I highly recommend BCA for anyone looking to build what you want at a decent price point.
I've got a 450 bushmaster and a 6.5 Grendel upper from BCA both are excellent I love the product 6.5 Grendel I took hunting this year did excellent just purchased my 450 bushmaster took it to the range and it's right on target. I'll use it for hunting next year. Thank you BCA for excellent products.
I made several purchases in the past.
Quality was good and Customer Service was Great. Not sure what the heck is going on there now but my order *******963 was back on the 28th of last month. Finally got ahold of a customer service guy and he sounded like he was barely awake? Told me it could take up to 2 more weeks and that was their policy? For one, What company would have someone like that doing custom service + Never had an order from them like that. Something Real Bad is going on there. I was going to put a few more orders in but after talking to that guy I ordered from Palmetto.
Sure hope they get it together, I liked the way they used to be.
My husband ordered 2- 223 barrels tht where on sale. Today makes day 14. My husband called them & all they told him is his order was still in prossesing. If my husband misses out on his sale. I blame bear crewk arsenol. Do not by from them. They didn't even offer to give him his money back either

I ordered the Bear creek Arsenal 20-60x60 spotting scope and when it arrived the eye piece was broken off, it was laying next to the scope in the plastic bag. Who sends stuff out the door like that? I tried calling customer service and no one would answer. I tried doing a claim on the website but it wouldn't let me finish so I could send the complaint that way and it wouldn't let me upload pictures. Why BCA why do your customers like this?

Purchased a brand new AR15 upper receiver from a gun show in Berea, Oh, in February 2022. No receipt. Just cash and carry. Went to a shooting range to try it. Every other round got stuck in the chamber and did not eject. The gunsmith on premises examined the barell and said the chamber needs to be honed due to the poor quality of machining. He did not want to do it. Sugested to send it back to the manufacturer.
Called Bear Creek Arsenal. Left a message. A lady called back in a few hours. Explained what's going on. She said if is not in warranty, they will not fix it. Told her I am willing to pay. She refused.
The gunsmith at the range told me that BCA products are poor quality and he would not touch their stuff with a 10 feet pole. He was right. I wasted a few hundred dollars for crap.
I should have gotten an Anderson. Better quality and better customer service.
Thank you, Bear Creek, for selling garbage!

Got 2 556. And a 450 bushmaster and I'm about to order a 7.62. Highly recommend for budget builds. Down fall, slightly heavy. But perfect for hunting or just target
I ordered and received BCAs.22 WMR upper and took it out to the range. It performed very well, was accurate, and no problems whatsoever. Would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys target shooting.
When I made a purchase from Bear Creek arsenal I was extremely impressed with the craftmanship and functionality of their products. Would recommend. Their BC-15 side charging uppers are very good.
Tip for consumers:
Get the .223 wylde variant
Products used:
Their BC-15 side charging complete upper. With the 20 inch chrome fluted barrel.
I paid for a 7.5 inch side charger in 7.62x39. I was sent a 10.5 inch upper. I contacted cust service thru email where it states it could take 14 days for them to get back to me. 14 days cause their employees sent the wrong item. After sending an email I waited a couple of days and called customer service myself. After realizing the item is now not in stock Was given the run around, after asking to speak to a manager was hung up on. But before that I was told to send it back it could take upto 14 days after they receive it. So that's 14 days (possibly) for them to get back to you, then you send back the item (x Amy of days) then if they have the item you actually paid for you get to wait (possibly)another 14 days = total 28 + days because their inspector JR to be exact sent out the wrong item. That's what you get from bearcreeks cust. Service.
Tip for consumers:
Don’t. go elsewhere
