Mr. LeClair is a class act. We are very lucky to have a man like him mfg and producing such quality items.

Once again, the value of these videos cannot be overstated. Thanks Chad. You're the man!

Absolutely love Centurion's stuff. Their Socom 14.5 Mid Length barrels, their quad rails with a FSP Cut Out/Mid length Gas, their chrome carriers and their E4 Tapered Bolts for their T Marked barrel extensions, and the fact that you can touch base with them about any of their products or if you have questions related to your build. I will continue to support them as long as I possibly can.

Centurion is a very underrated company. Glad to see them getting some love.

Everything Centurion makes is absolutely top notch. They make the best combat barrels on the market, IMO. Gassing is perfect and accuracy is phenomenal for a Chromed bore.

I’m thankful Monty put these out. The Knights ones have reached the unobtainium level and this will give others a chance for a solid comparable carrier. I know knights concentrates on government contracts but if I owned a company with this much demand I would definitely find a way to set up more facilities to make more. It is possible to scale and keep quality, and it seems they are just leaving money on the table.

And.... they are sold out. Love what you do on this channel. You've really helped me learn so much I would have never looked for.

I've been raving about Centurion for damn near 15 years . In 2009 I picked up C4 Quad rail and fell in love . I think it was 2013 or 2014 when i picked up an actual upper . Centurion is by far my favorite and Monty is well respected in the community . Centurion CM4 14.5 MIDWEIGHT HF with C4 Chrome M16 BCG and C4 12.5 Quad rail is IMO one of the best Uppers for the money . Can't wait until he makes Chrome Bolt to match but either way his Phosphate bolts are still super solid.. Nice video bro

The service and value you bring to this community is inspiring.

Regarding the vestigial hole through the firing pin retaining pin channel: I'll hazard a guess that Chris Bartocci tried to convince Monty to put the captive retaining pin in these carriers, as I believe those two are also friends and Chris is an advocate for the feature. I suppose it's for the best that it was omitted; imagine how awkward it would be needing to refer to it as the "firing pin retaining pin retaining pin."

*Breakaway Torque is the proper term for "reverse torque" in case you were wondering. Thanks for the great video! Carrier looks good.

I bought a Sionics NP3 BCG after watching your videos and now it looks like a Centurion will be added as well. Thanks for the amazing content as always.

They look like very good BCG! Awesome camera work as usual. Thanks again Chad!

Wow I'm impressed with these carriers. I'm even more impressed after your testing and findings. I am for sure picking one up. Thank you for sharing with us sir. It is nice to see someone with your experience and years of knowledge passing that info along to the consumer. It is nice for the manufacturer as well, they can improve any issues or concerns you find. When a company sends products to you for testing, I personally feel pretty good about those companies. Even if you find issues, I think that the company being open and transparent to the community is outstanding. It also lets me know that they care about their products and the end user experience.

I won't to thank you for your videos. After watching your video on a carrier inspection I was able to figure out why my 300bk and .223 wasn't cycling. (I switch between the two uppers and use the same lower. For now) turned out I had a small pin stuck in the gas key. Once I got it out I had no more issues. Thank you again.

Very informative! Thanks again for taking time to produce these videos!!

Chrome and Hard Chrome are the best finishes in my humble opinion. My dad's duty gun was a 1991a1 that was hard Chrome plated and that finish is still going strong.

Chad..your humbleness is why i think most people trust you.i appreciate all of your time and knowledge you give us. This channel is super educational and has given me confidence. Thank you sir!

2 videos in one day! You spoil us Chad!

I just want to say thanks for what you do.

Chad, thank you for being so generous with these videos. You drop so many tidbits of info along the way. I never would've thought of using half a toothpick to hold the bolt catch in when pinning it.

Centurion is great. I love their lowers. Really amazing. Great barrels.

Just picked up my first centurion barrel, rail , and lower. Excited for this build! Ran with a normal c4 bcg, but if I can find a sand cutter I’m gonna get it!

Thank you for these informative videos. I've benefited greatly from your content and appreciate your efforts.

Thanks for the review. I am a big believer in Centurion Arms and I am really looking forward to their bolt that I can marry with this carrier.

Excellent content and subject matter. Thank you.

I have 3 BCM bolts ,all 3 have good finish inside and out. Just bought a colt 20 inch upper with a bolt and charging handle. The quality on the colt upper,barrel and bolt are very good. Using a bore scope on the bolt inside the finish is excellent. I am using this colt 20 inch to replace a 1986 Colt HBAR barrel. I wonder If Chad would like to see what the inside of a 13,000 round old HBAR barrel looks like. Make a nice video.

Looks like a great product. I have a couple of the KAC sandcutters but it's nice to know there is an obtainable quality alternative.

Awesome info Thanks to Tactical toolbox for referring your channel.

Theres a knights sand cutter on gun broker right now selling for $1,599.00 🤯

Thank u 4 the videos. I watch and learn.

I’ve been waiting for this video

Another fantastic video 😉 ... keep them coming, Brother 👍👊🇺🇸

Thank You for the education. I enjoy your WORK.

This is a treat! I've been waiting for this video ever since I found out about these bcg's.

those gas block screws are pretty nifty! the retaining pin retainer seems like a solution to a problem that doesnt exist.

Thank you Sir. Love your vids. Suggestions: I am asked a lot about where and how much to lube. That might be a good little bit of info you can share. I refer a lot to your vids

Would love to see the new KAK BCGs on here.

Thanks Chad. I love the channel and I just got on the waiting list for one of these awesome carrier groups. Hope to see this soon. Add states that once they’re again available, it’ll be sold as a complete BCG assembly bolt included so I’m guessing $250 or up?

For you to recommend something on video says a lot.Thanks

Geesh, those bolt carriers are machined to very same tolerances. Precision

2 vids, we've been blessed

2 of my colt uppers have Centurion c4 handguards on them , car cut on my 14''.5 , and 12'' on my colt comp 18'' no BS the best hanguards around , so impressed that if i see an upper on GB for 5 bills or less equipped with one ill snap it right up asap ( the colt comp 18 was a 2am impulse buy based on that theory and did not disappoint ) the sand cutters have been sold out for a while though.

Those are very good looking bcg's all I run are chrome bcg's I gotta say I just might have to pick one of those up!!!! Great video love the information!!!!

Love their barrels. Excited for this

Ive wondered if Centurion arms stuff was any good. Glad to see someone talk about them. Thanks Chad. Was going to buy an upper and lower but was'nt sure about the quality, now i am.

Id like to see actual dirt/sand tests with a standard vs sandcut bcg. Kinda seems like sandcuts on a closed/tight system like an ar15 carrier would create more points of wear and contact especially as carbon/dirt gets in around them. I picture putting gaps in snow ski's vs one long ski. It's a little different then the sandcuts on an FAL, and the tolerances around the carrier aren't as tight. But kinda a solution to a problem that doesn't exist with an ar15, and maybe even creates areas for ingress in what is a mostly closed system?

Wow was looking forward to this

I would love to see you do a comparison between a 12.5 centurion arms called hammer, forged chrome lined barrel, and one from Hodge Defense. I know you’ve already done a barrel physical for a Hodge Defense, but I’ve never seen you do one for centurion, and I’m looking at both of them for a potential build

Wish other manufacturers would copy the features of the sand cutter and the dual ejectors.

damn i wish i could like this more than once!!

MONTHS behind in shipping i’m on the list! hopefully get done soon :)

Awesome! Love Centurion Arms, they are so good!

Very good stuff!

2 in less than a day let’s gooo!!

KAK just released their dual ejector bolt and sand cut carriers

If you ever get a chance to do a physical/autopsy video on a 308 pattern of AR, I would love to see thar

Always gain great knowledge from your videos! It has been a month since any of your videos have been uploaded to Rumble; will this change or are you sticking to youtube going forward?

my only complaint about the centurians chromed bcgs; its just the carrier, i'd prefer it to be the full assembly, so i know its going to work the way it should. and i don't have to try and hunt down a viable bolt, which can sometimes be annoying to accomplish. otherwise; they seem to make good product. and i wish they had more stainless barrel options, but que sera sera.

Please review that KAK industry k spec please and thank you. I believe the majority of their products to be over priced hype and I’m curious if they actually make a good carrier

I’ve never had the luxury of owning a KAC carrier before but I’ve read comments. What is your opinion on extra wear on the receiver, and or lube issues?

gorgeous

Having the choice would you also use a hard chromed bolt and just a nitrated extractor or have both nitrated?

Chad, what's your opinion on throwing a chrome BCG in an ultrasonic cleaner? Yay or nay? And if yes, any recommended time+temp (using a 1:1 ratio of regular simple green)? Thank you.

Amazing videos, what are your thoughts on the kak industry’s duel extractor, downward vents, sand cutter bcg?

Been waiting for this one.

DS Arms also makes a nice BCG with the sand cuts.

Have you ever done a physical on any products from HM Defense? They have the monobloc barrels and the bolt design where the cam pin doesn't go all the way thru the bolt. Just wondering if they are reliable products? Doesn't seem to be much hype at all with their barrels and bolts.

How do you feel about Rubber City Armory adjustable gas keys? I'd love a video regarding it. I had a smith put one on an Expo Arms carrier I'll send mine for inspection. Thanks for the content.

Over the years there's been the debate to download mags or not so that they seat when loading. If a loaded mag (fully loaded or not) is giving you problems seating on a closed bolt, is it probably due to the rails on the carrier not being in spec? This would make sense as to the main culprit of that issue.

Best BCG out as of NOW

Have you ever done an inspection on a Cryptic coatings BCG? I’m pretty sure it’s just a Tool-craft BCG with a special coating that Cryptic applies. I’m curious to see how thick their coatings are and if it has potential impact on performance. I have a few I haven’t used yet and can send you one for your videos if you can send it back. Actually I’m only an hr from you and can drop off as well.

Just wondering, what do you think of the Ruger SFAR? From what I understand, its a fairly standard BCG that can take many AR15 parts. Kinda concerned how it will handle 7.62 pressure however..

The 2 gas keys that touched were pre production run. Idk how much weight I put in that. The production 2 looked good.

"I love chrome" - Chad SHINY AND CHROME!!

So uhhhh can I scoop one of those from ya 😂 also thank you for this review I appreciate this one

Outstanding

Question: Can you take a Colt Sporter 9mm from the 1990s that takes SMG mags and change the carrier and magwell guide to take glock mags?

Monte’s stuff is hard to beat…just need a health dose of patients due to the demand.

I'll definitely be picking a few of these up once they start releasing with bolts. I was planning on purchasing prior to seeing this video, but if anything I'm more confident in the quality of these carriers now. I would be genuinely surprised if the bolts left anything to be desired.

Never understood the concept of defeating the sealed system properties of an AR and putting more ingress points for sand and debris to enter lol. I don't think there is even any documentation for the origination of these bolts in terms of user request (not for CMT but for KAC). They probably saw the FAL and were like "we can milk this from all the instagram warriors," and now they sell on the used market for $1000 LOL.

Hello I watch & Learn alot from your Show I saw your Physical on the Centurion Arms Sand cut Carriers I actually purchased One I run it with a Colt Bolt Do you have any Idear when The Bolts for these carriers will be Available I sent a few emails to centurion but haven't heard back from them I'm hoping they will be available soon so I could purchase them.

I have a SOLGW BCG that will not hold its weight up when standing the BCG up on the bolt face. The gas rings measure 12.70mm where new rings measure 13.0mm.. both off the bolt. What are your thoughts on this?

2:05 I ordered two early on, and one came with the hole & the other without.

I subscribed long ago, but I never get videos in my feed. Had to find a video post to gripe about it.

I notice you have a bottle of loctite and vibratite. What situations do you use each one?

A thorough probing as usual.

Gotta get me one of these

Where do you typically purchase your tools from?

What do you think about the mew titanium BCG's from walker defence. Are they better than carpenter steel? Thanks!

So, price being equal, this or kac? And would you pick this over a rebcg, surefire and other non milspec gucci bcgs?

Are you offering this service for individuals to send there in? I thought I saw a video a while back but don't see it listed on your site?

What bolts do they plan on using? I've bought quite a few BCG's that the bolts don't pass the specs - the cam pin holes are too large, and the bolt tail is not to spec.

i hope they do include a firing pin retaining pin retaining pin

If you could only upgrade 1 part on a factory assembled box AR-15, I would say the bolt carrier should be that 1 part.

Will these accelerate the wear on the inside wall of the upper?

How do these compare to the KAC sandcutter and would this be a worthwhile investment for my End of the world rifle ?

I like captive fireing pin retaining pins. I hope they keep it on the design

Rated at..... 😃😃😃😃😃 Five Smiles!!!

I’m just getting into gun smithing and I am learning how to diagnose issues. I found light flakes of brass in an ar bolt after removing the extractor. Does anyone have any useful information?
