    The BCM is in short supply right now and I was wondering if anyone has an opinion on the Sharps? Is it as good or should I just wait till they are back in stock. It will be in a BCM Mk2 16inch BFH Keymod with a BCM lower. Thanks for any input.

    Sharps bolts tend to fail more frequently than others.

    If you understand how the AR platform operates, you would understand how silly their bolt lugs are.

    If those are your only two options, go with BCM. It's a quality BCG put together by a good company.

    FWIW, you shouldn't limit yourself to BCG's just because they are tan. You can pick up a quality phosphate BCG from Sionics or Centurion for $125. They will both have C158 bolts and OCKS, along with chrome lined bores.
