Hi folks,
I'm just looking for some advice from some of you who have been shooting ARs over the years. I have a factory built upper on it's way and I want to try a brand new Young Manufacturing NM BCG (that I already have) in it. Should I be concerned about swapping Bolt Carrier Groups between guns or is that only a potential concern a couple thousand rounds down the road? I don't know a whole lot about head spacing and as usual the "interweb" has some conflicting reports about the level of risk with not checking first.
Getting some "go," "no go" gauges are on my list for future projects, but I'm leaning towards new BCGs and a factory built upper are going to be fairly safe.
Thanks for your input.
Eddie
