Given the new "rules" the ATF has coming out with the possibility of serializing nearly every part of a rifle now - even RAILS - I'm wanting to stock up on a good few essentials before we have to pay transfers on every individual part ordered through a FFL.
I've really only ever bought complete rifles - and I'm not the most experienced with the parts in them anyways. We all start somewhere right?
So a major thing I want to know your opinions of is BCG's you'd buy if you were going to buy 10 or so spares for your 5.56 and .308 rifles.
I'm especially torn on coating/finishes. Everyone says NiB but then major players like kac don't even offer it and call it a BS option because of hydrogen embrittlement over time.
So nitride? DLC? Chrome? Some of everything? What would you do.
Anyone have a BCG they've had kick ass over 10k+ rounds and have no visible major wear they want to suggest?
I don't plan on NOT buying anything new again - but as most would likely agree, I'd rather not have the feds keeping a comprehensive list of every single part we buy for the obvious eventuality of it.
