So I'm thinking about getting a semi auto ar-10 platform for hunting. I'm at this moment torn between the BCL 102 mk7 and the Stag-10. I'd very much like to put my own together which the Stag-10 would be perfect for(Been reading the sticky thread). Be able to customize etc.. But I really like the price point these BCL's are coming in at. Anyone on here have experience with both platforms? Would love to hear some of the thoughts of owners of them before I pull the trigger on one.
BCL 102 mk7 or stag-10
- Thread starter Ribstaylor
- Start date
I realize the iterations before this new one had some problems but does the new Mk7? I'm having a hard time finding any info on the new Mk7's and their quality or a range report. They still made in Canada?

I'd say Stag 10 as well. That's coming from a guy that's got a 2nd or 3rd gen 102 that had the ejection issues, until I rebuilt the bolt with their 2nd or 3rd rendition of a bolt parts kit that is. No other issues with mine and it shoots good too. But, I'd still say stag10
Where did you get it on sale?
Gotcha. I thought BCL was always excluded from their sales
Ill have to keep my eye out looks cool.

Do you think/hope they FINALLY got it right the 7th time?
I'd prefer to support Canadian if possible, which if they are still made here is a decent selling point. Alberta tactical rifle supply is just out of my price range. But the stag still is a cool looking rifle.
I went with the BCL MK7 in black from SFRC on sale.
I bought some barnaul 308 ammo. The mk7 picks it up from the mag and chambers it properly.
I have never fired the gun, just trying it out.
When I pull the mk7's charging handle the second time, the cartridge does not get extracted and another cartridge gets jammed in with the 1st cartridge.
I am thinking this means I have a defective extractor??

Bad extractor or excessive headspace. There was another guy on Reddit having this problem.
Are you using dummy rounds or live rounds?
Are you letting the charging handle go when you chamber the first round or are you riding it home? Make sure you just let it go, if you ride it that first round may boot be fully chambered.
