Faxon Firearms .308 / 6.5 Creedmoor Full-Mass Bolt Carrier Group - Nitride

The Faxon Firearms .308 / 6.5 Creedmoor Full-Mass Bolt Carrier Group - Nitride is an upgraded bolt carrier group that offers superior performance and durability.

One of the key improvements of this product is the use of 9310 tool steel for the bolt. This material is stronger than the more common C158 steel used in bolt carrier groups, ensuring better reliability and longevity. Additionally, the assembly has been nitrided, which significantly increases surface hardness, reduces resistance, and provides superior corrosion resistance compared to chrome and phosphasted finishes.

To ensure the highest quality, all bolts are fully MPI tested to confirm that the material is free from defects. The bolt lugs are chamfered at a 45-degree angle, ensuring reliable action even with high-pressure hand loads and fast lightweight actions.

The Faxon Bolt Carrier Groups are Superfinished, reducing friction and increasing the smoothness of operation. This also helps to reduce fouling, ensuring consistent performance over time. Furthermore, these bolt carrier groups are full-Auto rated, making them compatible with full-auto fire control groups and new multi-stage trigger systems.

The gas keys of these bolt carrier groups are secured with grade 8 fasteners and fully staked, guaranteeing a lifetime of service. This level of reliability makes it an ideal choice for both professional users and enthusiasts.

The technical specifications of this bolt carrier group are impressive. The bolt is constructed with 9310 tool steel and undergoes full MIL-SPEC heat treatment, magnetic particle inspection, and shot peening. The back of the lugs is chamfered for increased reliability. Springs and dual O-ring ensure proper function. The extractor is made of S7 tool steel and is fully heat treated and shot peened to MIL-SPEC. The carrier and key are made of MIL-SPEC 8620 steel and 4140 steel, respectively, and are also fully heat treated. The carrier features forward assist serrations, and grade 8 fasteners securely attach the key. The cam pin is made of 4140 pre-hardened steel.

It is important to note that when using this bolt carrier group with barrels that have not been specifically checked by Faxon for headspacing, it is crucial to perform this check to ensure safe and reliable function. Faxon recommends using Pacific Tool & Gauge headspace kits for accurate measurements.

In conclusion, the Faxon Firearms .308 / 6.5 Creedmoor Full-Mass Bolt Carrier Group - Nitride is a high-quality, reliable, and durable component that will greatly enhance the performance of your firearm.
