Quality peice of equipment

by Mike Honcho

This thing works harder than an ugly stripper. Can’t tell you why it works so good. How does a posit trac rear end work in a Plymouth? It just does! Highly recommend this bcg.

Brittle edges which chipped quickly

by Jason -

I have purchased two of these. The first one no issues. The most recent one had very sharp edges on the bolt where it slides along the receiver. After only 25 rounds it began to chip along the edges producing very sharp jagged edge. I am working with Zero Fail directly now but have not been provided a resolution just yet. Nonetheless I will be purchasing an Aero bolt (the AR is an Aero Precision) to run from here on. If they replace it, it will be w spare.

Failzero bolt

by Michael Culp -

I built a new AR si i wanted to try this one. I love it, cleans very easily after shooting it for the first time. I am going to probably change out my bolt on mybother AR's to this one.

Best BCG I have ever bought!!!

by Ron -

I have purchased Nickel Boron bolt carrier groups from several different companies, including PSA, Spikes Tactical, etc. None of them are the same level of quality as the Failzero. It runs super smooth, and does not allow carbon build up like the others do, making cleaning much easier.

Slick bolt

by Jake -

If it lasts the same as my last fail zero bolt carrier, I will have no problems at all with it. My other has close to 6k rounds on it an with some minor maintenance it's still working like new. The nickel boron really makes cleaning a world easier, and it's natural lubrication properties keep the bolt cycling smooth even between less than optimal cleaning schedules
