NEA/BCL 102 FAQ Thread

What gas tube are guys running on the rifle length gas system barrels? I have found some conflicting info in my google searches.

It depends on your barrel.

DPMS style gas system barrels use standard rifle length tubes.

The Armalite rifle length gas system uses an extended tube.
 
WTF is this... lol.. Custom Khyber Pass part ?

I think on another sponsors website, that exact same piece is described as "enhanced", and goes for around $23.00, as opposed to the regular buffer retainer which sells on their site for approximately $1.50

So if that is what it is (I'm guessing that is where you pulled it from), it appears that you have an "enhanced" buffer retainer pin. And that it would be a source other than just BCL that claim it to be as such. I am not sure on the BCL position on the part.
 
With the Fulton Armory (Criterion) lightweight barrel .... 147g Lake City factory ammo. Primary Arms 1-6. JP BCG. Happy with the results.

Is it a GenI or GenII? Thinking of getting the same barrel, just cerious if there are issues with barrel and bolt swaps on the GenII.
 
Is anyone else having a heck of a time removing the takedown pin on a Gen 2?

Shouldn't really need a hammer for this.... should I?
 
Don't hit it. My buddy says he hammered his and the pin blew out the side of the receiver. The material there is too thin/soft to take it. I sent mine back for that reason, and others....still waiting.

I should clarify that in my case, it is the forward pivot pin.

Hello,
I have 100 rounds down my Gen 2 (rec’d May 15). First 20 rounds went fairly smoothly. Next 60 most stove-piped/FTE/double feed. BCG moving enough to advance next round from mag. I have a total of four mags - two XCR pistol, one PMag and one steel mag that came with the 102. All with same effect. Cleaned/lubed that gun VERY thoroughly. I use EWL. Ran the last 20 rounds through a fairly wet lubed gun. Stove pipes/FTE on every round. Only mod to the gun is a Magpul ASAP Sling Mount behind the lower. Had to Dremel the ears on the ASAP (carefully) to fit. Buddy did the same and his 102 runs fine. Also, FTE last round (stove-piped) and BCG came forward. Sent photos to D at BCL last week - still waiting to hear back. Thoughts? Very frustrating... I had high hopes for this gun.
