Seeing "MIL-SPEC" as just the starting point, we set out to ensure the best options are available for our demanding customers. 

Improvements include using 9310 tool steel for the bolt, nitriding the assembly to increase surface hardness, decrease resistance, and have superior corrosion resistance compared to typical chrome and phosphasted bolt carrier groups. All bolts are fully MPI tested to ensure the material is sound and without defects. Bolt lugs are chamfered 45 degrees to ensure reliable action for even the highest pressure hand loads and fast lightweight actions. 

Faxon Bolt Carrier Groups are Superfinished to reduce friction, increase smoothness of operation, and reduce fouling. Further, they are full-Auto rated and maintain the trip for full-auto fire control groups and new multi-stage trigger systems. Gas keys use grade 8 fasteners and are fully staked for a lifetime of service.

    Finish on this bolt is second to none.

    I love this bolt and how perfectly smooth the coating is. Compared to my TiN bolt it isn't quite as wet or slippery but I know it won't get stained like that bolt will. Only used the bolt a little but it ran great surpressed even dry out of the box. I'm impressed!

    Nice

    I am in the process of building 2 Ars atm, I have purchased this BCG and comparing the fit and finish to a griffin armament BCG, they are very similar in fit and finish. The melonite finish is a little flat in color compared to the one pictured, it is not a gloss finished BCG. Will be firing this soon.

    Solid beautiful BCG

    Posted by Gerald Johnson on Mar 1st 2017

    I ordered this BCG because Faxon takes great pride in their products, The BCG was installed into my 3 gun competition AR with Faxon's 18 inch QPQ barrel. My first impression was that the QPQ nitrite finish was beautiful, their were no tool marks to be found. I proceeded to disassemble the BCG to apply a light oiling of the bolt rings and to do a general prep for the break in process, the bolt was also very well finished. Once reassembled I gauged the head space it was spot on so I applied a light oiling of the carrier and finished the install. Once at the range I ran 5 round intermediate speed round dispersion through 2 full 30 round magazines. Once the bcg had passed my intermediate testing I proceeded to put 600 rounds down range no failures at all. All rounds properly cycled and ejected. Following my 600 round test I followed up with the final test rapid mag dumps 400 rounds worth no failures. I then happily went home and cleaned my BCG and rifle and competed in a 3 gun competition in southern Colorado and took home some cash and still no failures. Needless to say I am very impressed with this BCG it runs perfect and I would recommend it to anyone. Great job Faxon.

    Excellent choice

    Posted by Mike on Feb 8th 2017

    Right out of the box..you can see the beautiful QPQ finish was perfect..not a flaw anywhere. Only gave it 4stars because I'm in the middle of my build. Which I also mated this BCG up with a 16 Gunner..it also was flawless. Can't wait to get my build done and shoot it.Updates will be coming in soon. Stay tuned.

    Best Bang for your buck

    This complete BCG with their Nitride finish, works perfectly. It's properly staked, machined & coated. It came head spaced to the barrel I also ordered & performed perfectly at the range. The Nitride finish is durable & makes cleanup a BREEZE. Top Notch products, thanks again guys...

    Excellent finish

    Posted by Andrew on Dec 16th 2016

    The finish on this Bolt Carrier is fantastic. I have a hard time finding tool marks on it and the finish is nice and smooth to make it easy to clean. Having the bolt matched to the barrel is great and the laser engraving is top notch and deep so it can't wear off or anything like that
