Gas key, Is it chrome lined?

[rmg200]

I ordered a BCM BCG and just noticed when I was taking my rifle apart that the gas key doesn't looked chrome lined, but I definitely ordered a chrome lined carrier with the gas key also chrome lined. Would you guys agree?

If you search BCM's website with the words "gas key", you only get one result, and the result is a chrome lined gas key.

So.....I'd have to say if it's a BCM BCG, it's lined

I don't know if miltary gas keys were chromed or not, I never saw anything that would make me think they are. The bolt carrier definately is, at least the front half.

I know it is supposed to be, but is it? And yes the carrier is.

Looks dirty to me. Spray some Gunscrubber or non-chlorinated brake cleaner in there. If you have dull gray/silver, it's chrome lined. If not, contact Bravo. They'll make it right.

carbon build up, definitely appears chrome lined with carbon to me.
