What can I say, awsome!

First let me just say this bolt is so slick it feels almost wet when dry. Great bolt was a little pricey for my taste but life time warranty well worthy investment for a great bcg I have shot a little over 500 rounds in one outing everything just wiped off with a rag no real solvent needed.
Wow

I'll start by saying that I was the guy who bought the NiB bcg as soon as it came out back in the day, because the science made sense and they look good. Of course, I love my Mil Specs too, and I've worn out a few along the way.
With that said...holy cow is this thing nice. I did a full breakdown and inspection (I always change the extractor and ejector springs to Sprinco when I buy a bcg), and everything was of great quality. This thing is so slick, if you have any oil on your hands, you may drop it (and yes, you still need to lube it before you use it).
Is it better? Nah, they all do the job. This thing just looks pretty while doing it, and I spend about 1/3rd the time cleaning it. If you want it and have the budget, then go for it. It has stood up to my torture tests. I'm a firm believer that this is the second thing you should not skimp on- the first thing being the barrel.
Outsanding

Don't let the price scare you off! This BCG functions well and is very smooth. It is also very easy to clean due to the coating.
Amazing

Love Cryptic, they are the smoothest running bcg's I own and they look great too. As usual Primary Arms was great with fast shipping and a good price.
