YHM Complete uppers?

[smythe012]

I have scoured the Internet for as much info as possible but I figured I would still get the valued opinion of my fellow INGOers. What do you think of YHM uppers? I'm looking at this one in particular:

Black Diamond Carbine Top End

I already think highly of BCM and Spikes, so I'm unsure of venturing into the unknown (to me).

Thoughts? First hand experience?

No first hand experience, but for the price on the page, I'd buy a BCM all day long.

Or Spikes.

a little more detail: it's a trade opportunity where the other person has a factory spikes lower with that upper. If I was going "out of pocket", it would be BCM or Spikes all day long.

I've not heard of any problems with YHM. And the NFA items I have of theirs is good to go

+1 here on the BCM, myself I would just stick with them, I myself have seen YHM rifles have issues at my local range. where the PSA & BCM rifles keep on running. The YHM I have seen had several FTF, FTE, stove pipes etc.
Also I have seen the PSA premium line of upper do the same, stand toe to toe with the BCM rifles.

YHM is great.
BCM is great.

2 great options. Look at price and accessories to sway it one way or the other.

*Edit to add - I haven't handled YHM gear in a little over 2 years. But the guns I handled, and their reputation were excellent (I hope they still are)

I have that Black Diamond tube. It is extremely sturdy but it's fat and very heavy. I'm not sure about the upper receiver or barrel, but I would not buy that handguard again.
