Is it worth the wait for a Noveske RCA 5.56 M16 BCG, I talked to a sales rep. yesterday and he could not give me a day or month when they would be back in stock?
Thanks

It's nice, I got one, but I'm not sure it's that big of an improvement over stock.  It still requires periodic replacement of gas rings etc, but it is Purdy

I'm a big Noveske fan, but my BCG of choice is LMT's enhanced bolt and carrier. I think the addition features and extra strength are worth the extra money. All the new finishes on BCGs are nice but I don't put to much value in them. So, no, I wouldn't wait, not that special.

nope. I have a noveske build i did where i went out of my way to buy things with crosses on them. I refused to spend that much more for the BCG. When John was alive there were a lot of logos, but he chose the parts for his weapon based on quality. His bcg were mil spec bcgs, so thats what i'll stick with.

Off topic, but did you get your NFA stuff squared away?

Ted clutter has really helped me out. I'm moving at the end of this month and he said hopefully I'll see the stamps next week. Great guy and thanks to you guys for letting me know who to contact.

Man, I finally gave up.  I put a WMD nickle whiz bang in my Crusader.  I waited, and wanted it to be 100% Noveske, but was not going to pay $400 from gunbroker.

No, they are problematic (RCA BCG's). Multiple issues, crap CS, etc. PASS! I cannot believe Noveske aligned themselves with RCA.

The one Noveske sent me was nice, but I have read about the issues RCA had in the not so distant past.  It was free and everything is extremely nice fit and finish wise except the iron cross logo isn't perfect.  If I were buying one right now, I'd buy one of their standard BCGs for $150 (less from DSG if you are LE/MIL) or an AO/Toolcraft etc for even less.
