NEA/BCL 102 FAQ Thread

[ljones]

do you even shoot bro ?

Well he does troll though and is in the pink now...

I must say I am surprised no local boys have taken photos or video of the display rifle yet. It would keep me pacified for a little longer while I wait for mine to be shipped

Huh? Did you read the first post? It has a non restricted FRT.... MSRP is 1750 and there is a presale right now at sfrc for late sept.

Okay my apologies I'm blind. Lol

 

[driller212]

Okay my apologies I'm blind. Lol

No problem. We are all very excited!

Great thread. Not sure why you had to do this though. The CDN distributor is the one raking in the cash over these, at the vary least they could fill people in a bit more, maybe disassemble one and show better quality pics !

I wonder if they even got more then one (yes I see boxes in the pic, but...) , seems pretty odd nobody has one physically in there hands yet lol.

The entire presentation and secrecy of this gun has been a complete gong show.

The FAQ posted is basically the description from my website. There is no secrecy...it's right in the items description.

so what parts inter change ?
trigger groups ? barrels ? uppers ?

will it come with a forward assist ? is a forward assist really needed ?

how dirty does the action get from the gas system ?

is a guy stuck using upper parts from nea or does a upper casting exist from else where that can be built to fit and function with the lower ?

 

[Stoner99]

All hold off till I see the range reports.

 

[driller212]

so what parts inter change ?

trigger groups and stocks. The rest is unknown
trigger groups ? barrels ? uppers ?

will it come with a forward assist ? is a forward assist really needed ?
no it does not, and no it is not needed at all.

how dirty does the action get from the gas system ?

Dirty enough that it must be maintained every few hundred rounds (preferably less) for reliable operation.

is a guy stuck using upper parts from nea or does a upper casting exist from else where that can be built to fit and function with the lower ?
the NEA receiver design is proprietary

See bold.

Here is a dumb question.


Does an aftermarket AR15 tack latch fit the NEA102 charging handle or is it undersized?

 

[grizzly416]

So it
Says qd mounts so
I'm
Trying
To
Figure
Out what sling to get and if I need adapters

 

[Outcast]

Hopefully it makes it through the RCMP lab, not holding my breath though. What's the MSRP roughly?

Sorry... what?????

 

[Lobster_pot]

See bold.

So any ar-15 trigger group will work?

 

[driller212]

So any ar-15 trigger group will work?

From what I understand, yes. If you can wait a couple of weeks I will be installing my trigger tech and I can let you know if it works or not.

 

[JaredP]

When will additional uppers be available?

Does it use an existing or proprietary barrel design?

 

[driller212]

When will additional uppers be available?

there is no eta

Does it use an existing or proprietary barrel design?
Noone knows for sure, however NEA claims it is proprietary

Please see bold

 

[enefgee]

If standard AR uppers worked, or could be made to work using baling wire or duct tape, it would be restricted.

 

[DiabeticKripple]

If I had a dollar for every time I read "is there a 223/556 version coming?" I would have enough to buy 2 of these.

That muzzle brake is hideous though, I'm not one to modify a firearm too much but that's gonna go day one.
