We just can't help not accepting the status quo. Bolt carrier groups are available aplenty, but few could meet our exacting standards for performance and value. Seeing "MIL-SPEC" as just the starting point, we set out to ensure the best options are available for our demanding customers.
Improvements include using 9310 tool steel for the bolt, which is stronger and nitriding the assembly to increase surface hardness, decrease resistance, and have superior corrosion resistance compared to typical chrome and phosphated bolt carrier groups. All bolts are fully MPI tested to ensure the material is sound and without defects. Bolt lugs are chamfered 45 degrees to ensure reliable action for even the highest pressure hand loads and fast lightweight actions. Extractors are S7 Tool Steel. From there, the extractor is sprung using the spring, o-ring, and silicone insert.
The Faxon Firearms 6.8 SPC / .224 Valkyrie Bolt Assembly is designed for long lasting reliability. The Bolt is made from 9310 tool steel and Nitride coated to increase surface hardness even more. Additionally, it is shot peened and magnetic particle inspected to ensure safe and reliable function for thousands of rounds. The locking lugs are chamfered by 45 degrees to improve lockup for improved function and reliability with high pressure rounds. The extractor is made from S7 steel, which is optimal for resisting the violent shock of pulling cartridges out of the chamber after being shot. Just drop it into a Mil-Spec AR-15 bolt carrier and it is ready to run in your .224 Valkyrie or 6.8 SPC build.
