About the BCM® BFH 14.5" Mid Length ELW Complete Upper Receiver w/ MCMR-13 Handguard

All BCM® Upper Receiver Groups with a MCMR Handguard Include:

  • One 3" Picatinny Rail Section
  • One BCM MCMR Sling Mount

Manufactured by Bravo Company MFG, Inc. (BCM)

These Barreled Upper Receiver Groups are designed for shooting professionals and responsible civilians with the Mil-Spec features for the demands of their duty. They are fully assembled, headspaced, and test fired.
 
As a note: BCM barrel components are parkerized separately before assembly. Prior to shipping, all BCM upper receiver groups are test fired for function, laser bore sighted with a Milspec carry handle for sight alignment within Mil-Specs, and then batch samples are test fired for accuracy. As such, the upper receiver group will show handling marks consistent with these quality control procedures.

Cold Hammer Forged Barrels

This process of manufacturing barrels has been used for European small arms for generations, and it is gaining popularity in the United States because of the increased barrel life and outstanding accuracy of a hammer forged barrel. The BCM BFH series of barrels are made right here in the USA. (Just like all the BCM products.)

M4 Feed Ramp Barrel Extension and Upper Receiver

In developing the USGI M4 carbine as one of the primary weapons for today's infantry, some modifications were performed to the original M16 platform to enhance the reliability of the shorter barreled carbines. With the shorter carbine gas system and the increased gas port pressure, the carbine cycled faster, and at times the cycle rate could be faster than the magazine would feed ammunition. One of the modifications done to increase reliable feeding included enhancing the angle and the length of the feed ramps. This USGI modification was done to both the barrel extension and the upper receiver, creating a longer and steeper feed ramp. These Mil-Spec M4 feed ramps are part of the original CNC manufacturing process. As a result, the factory machined M4 feed ramps on the receiver are hard coat anodized which adds significant strength to the aluminum. This feature is offered on all BCM upper receivers and all BCM barrels.

T-Marked Upper Receiver

The contemporary M16/M4 rifle is built around the concept of modularity. All of the BCM flat top uppers feature a USGI type laser etched T-marks to provide addressing for the remounting of tactical accessories such as optics, laser sights, etc. This enables the weapon platform to be easily configured and then accurately reconfigured for each specific mission.

USGI 1/7 Twist Rate

The USGI 1/7 twist rate of all of the BCM barrels is the preferred twist rate by most professional infantryman. This twist rate has proven very versatile and can effectively run the new heavier 5.56 ammo that is hugely popular with military, private security personal, and personal defense for its' superior ballistics.

Mil-Spec Barrel Steel (Certified Mil-B-11595E)

BCM barrel steel is Mil-Spec per MIL-B-11595E, and is independently certified. This grade (CMV) of steel is a Mil-Spec steel used in the USGI M16 family of rifles; it is stronger and will last longer than the typical barrels offered in the commercial market. This Mil-Spec grade steel gets its' additional strength and rigidity from an increase in carbon and/or vanadium in the alloy. This will offer increased barrel life and performance through use in all types of extreme environments and temperatures.

Chrome Bore and Chamber

One of the first modifications that were made to the original M16 in the mid 1960's was the addition of the chrome lined bore and chamber. It is now a worldwide standard in the industry for a battle rifle. The chrome bore and chamber is harder than the barrel steel and will aid in chambering, extraction, and reliability. It increases velocity, and also resist against fouling and corrosion from extended use in the field. This gives the end user a longer barrel life with less required time in maintenance and cleaning.

Manganese Phosphate Barrel Finish

Barrels are parkerized with the manganese phosphate finish (Mil-Spec A-A-59267). Military specifications also state that the entire barrel surface is phosphate finished to create a porous surface to absorb oil as to resist against corrosion from the elements. BCM barrels are phosphated before installation of front sights. This is a much more extensive assembly operation, but insures that the entire barrel is finished and protected . . .even under the front sight base.

5.56 NATO Chambers

The USGI 5.56 NATO chamber is the best choice for effective deployment, reliability, and compatibility, of higher chamber pressures of military or high quality personal defense ammounition.

HPT / MP Inspected Barrels

Military specifications require that barrels undergo a HPT (High-Pressure Test) load as a part of quality assurance procedures. Commonly referred to as a proof load, the M197 HPT is rated for 70,000 psi. BCM barrels are proof loaded and then MPI (Magnetic Particle Inspected) to detect any possible flaws in the barrels surface. The barrels are MP inspected with both circular and longitudinal magnetic fields per ASTME1444-01 (current Mil-Spec) to assure a high quality finished product. All BCM barrels are marked HP MP as our proof load marking.

    Bcm 14.5 BFH upper receiver (ELW)

    Ordered the upper 14.5 ELW BFH upper receiver product came in quickly. First thing I noticed was that it had definitely been test fired as there are brass markings on upper receiver ejection ramp and there are marks where I’m guessing it was mounted to a lower receiver… Quality control not so quality, or is that just normal? I’m sure it will work just fine but expected more for high end company. Also I though I checked the box to include bolt carrier group but turns out somehow I didn’t, and I was expecting to have a bcg with my order. So I contacted bcm through email and asked if I could purchase a bolt carrier group and there response was that I could return my order for store credit then reorder it again. All in all I was expecting more from this company and wasn’t very impressed. Still haven’t got to test fire my bcm as I have no bolt carrier group and waiting for them to restock on the bcm website.

    Poor Fit

    I received this upper receiver group recently and was very disappointed in the fit between it and my lower. I tried it on an additional lower and found the same poor fit with a lot of play or movement between the two when pinned together. After contacting BCM customer service they were not at all interested in replacing the upper only willing to have me ship back the upper to be inspected to prove it is within spec. Very disappointed in the overall perceived quality and customer service.

    14.5” MCMR BFH ELW Upper w/ BCG & Comp Mod 1

    Initially had an issue with improper specs on my pin & weld Bcm comp mod 1 throwing huge fireballs, but customer Service was great and BCM covered shipping completely. My waiting period for replacement of the comp was maybe three days and within a week I had it back and was back at the range and I have to say, after they fixed the issue this Is without a doubt the best AR-15 style upper/rifle I have ever owned. It is a dream to shoot with almost no felt recoil whatsoever and the new comp works flawlessly with almost no muzzle flash. This is also the lightest rifle I own even noticeably more so than my 12.5” and is perfectly balanced with the ELW barrel leaving almost no weight out front. Function is flawless with 0 malfunctions or hiccups after 1000 rounds and only one cleaning. Highly recommend purchasing this upper along with the BCM BCG. Excited to get back to the range and use this upper on the BCM lower with geissele ssp trigger I just purchased. Highly recommend this upper and will be purchasing more in the future.

    Accurate and reliable

    Mine has over 2k rounds now. She just did approx 1.5 moa groups with frangible ammo and a 1x eotech at an urban rifle class and generally just was outstanding in all situations. Highly recommended. I’ll likely be getting another when I can.

    Perfection

    I was in the Corps back on 06-10. They were just rolling out bods for the at plate-from. I was the first unit in the Corps to qual with an Acog and weapon light. It’s so wild how far everything has come since then. This upper receiver is amazing. Really it’s perfect. It’s exactly what people in the suck need. Wish I had it years ago.

    14.5 Mid Length Enhanced Light Weight MCMR

    I just picked this up a little under a month ago and I like it a lot. Very light, runs great as expected looks great and even smells good! It will be the perfect home defense rifle for myself and female family members. I plan on taking a carbine course this summer and it will be the rifle I bring along.
