Announcing the BC-15 Bolt Action Style Upper and Rifle [Coming 12/9/24]

For years, Bear Creek Arsenal has set the standard in the firearms community for producing reliable, innovative products that balance high-quality craftsmanship with affordability. Today, we are excited to introduce the newest addition to our lineup to be released later this month: the BC-15 Bolt Action Style Complete Upper and Rifle! 

Known for their inherent accuracy and controlled, manual operation, bolt action rifles excel in hunting and long-range shooting environments. Our new bolt action style complete uppers combine the classic appeal and precision of bolt action with the modularity of the AR platform, giving shooters a fresh and unique option for their rifles.

Features of the BC-15 Bolt Action Style Upper and Rifle

The BC-15 bolt action style upper and rifle utilizes a convenient, rugged steel handle with an ultra-short 23 degree throw. Less moving parts means even higher accuracy! Plus the absence of cycling noise makes it a great option for precision shooters focused on their next shot. Like all of our AR-15 complete uppers, the BC-15 bolt action style upper is designed to fit seamlessly with any standard AR-15 lower. The bolt action style bolt carrier group utilizes the same T25 Torx bit for disassembly as BCA’s Gen-2 side charging handle. 

Durability is in the DNA of every Bear Creek Arsenal product. The bolt action style upper and rifle are constructed from high-quality materials, ensuring they withstand heavy use while remaining easy to clean and maintain.

 

Advantages Over Traditional Bolt-Action Rifles

One of the greatest advantages of the BC-15 bolt action style complete upper is the flexibility it brings to the AR platform. For many, the versatility to switch between a semi-auto and bolt-action configuration is a game-changer. Here’s what makes this product special:

  • Customization: You can add optics, bipods, grips, and other AR accessories to enhance the experience, giving you a bolt-action rifle that fits your unique style.
  • Cost-Effective Solution: Instead of purchasing a separate bolt-action rifle, this upper lets you convert your existing AR lower with ease, saving you both space and money.
  • Adaptability: With the ability to change calibers, shooters can quickly adapt their platform for different uses without the need for additional firearms. Like all our complete uppers, these require no additional paperwork and ship straight to your door. 

Why Choose Bear Creek Arsenal?

At Bear Creek Arsenal, we stand by our commitment to quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction. BC-15 bolt action style uppers and rifles are backed by our extensive expertise in firearms manufacturing and our dedication to delivering products that exceed expectations. With an extensive quality control process, competitive pricing, and a warranty that covers every purchase, you can feel confident in your investment.

The Bear Creek Arsenal BC-15 bolt action style rifle is a revolutionary addition for anyone who values precision, flexibility, and a little old-school bolt-action flair on the AR platform. BCA will offer bolt action style uppers and riles starting with the popular straight walled calibers of .350 Legend and .450 Bushmaster and expand to other hunting and precision calibers in the future. 

The BC-15 bolt action style will be released on December 9th 2024. Sign up for our email list to be the first to know when it is available!

Any plans for the new 338 ARC? I would be interested in a short 6-10” side charging upper for subsonic deer hunting.
Leitch John
November 11, 2024
How many rounds is the new bolt action able to withstand from the constant cycling of the bcg? I would assume possibly after so many cycles that the bolt action would possibly work itself out or may start to have some kind of warpage and does it have enough clearance from your hand depending on how the operator carries their firearm? Hate to have it smacking my knuckles while firing lol.
John
November 15, 2024
We are currently testing, no issues so far.
Gordon Nettles
December 1, 2024
It's a bolt action.... There is no cycling of the bcg unless you move the bolt intentionally. A bolt locks in place while you fire there is no gas system in a bolt action.
Lewis Owen
November 11, 2024
Let me know when it comes out and what kind of calibers
Michael Brown
November 13, 2024
Hopefully Bear Creek will make a left handed bolt
Anthony Vine

Mathew Dostal

Please make one in 7.62x39 or is this able to take standard ar barrels?
John
November 15, 2024
Yes, they will use our normal AR barrels
John Harte
November 14, 2024
Very interested will be adding one or two to my list.
Kevin Mackey

Mark Minghella

please make one for the AR10 in 308Win with a 24" Barrel or longer! 28" would be ideal and amazing!!!!
John
November 15, 2024
AR10s will be after the 15s
Richard Malcolm
November 18, 2024
I'm interested in a 308 as well. Can you be more specific please? After the 15s could mean any date in the future.
John
November 18, 2024
We do not have a launch date on the AR10s, this is still in the R&D stage. We will update as we know more in the upcoming newsletters.
ryan burgess
November 24, 2024
I concur a bolt action 308 with 24" or 28" stainless steel barrel would be a must have for me.
Genaro Camacho
November 15, 2024
Would be great for 6mmARC and 223wylde chambers, will be waiting...
Donnie Days
November 15, 2024
Will your NJ restriction apply to this upper? Thanks Donnie
Mason Brewer

I would really like to see a left handed 300 blackout!
Emily
November 16, 2024
Hoping this will be available for 5.56. I’ve looked at Unitah Precision’s bolt action uppers but they didn’t manufacture it in that caliber.
CoreyN
November 20, 2024
I have a Unitah Precision in 6.5 CM that shoots lights out. They will build to whatever caliber/length you want but it's super expensive. I'm excited to get a 300blk ~8in that doesn't cost more than my mortgage+car payment combined.
Jeffrey p Zentner

6mm arc 24" ss can't wait for the bolt upper.
Brady H
November 17, 2024
This is absolutely amazing. Would yall be selling the uppers and bolts on their own or as a complete upper. I’d love to have a short barrel 350 legend or a 16” 5.56. I’m super excited about this.
Stuart Pizani
November 17, 2024
What will be the first calibers?
John
November 18, 2024
.350 Legend and .450 Bushmaster to start with and more calibers coming after that.
Reaver960
November 17, 2024
Any chance you will be selling the bolt action AR-15 receiver/bolt set so we can build out 300BO and 5.56 uppers?
Vernon Robertson
November 18, 2024
What is the estimated cost for a bolt action calibers 224valkrie 223 wylde and 300blackout thanks
clifford schanbeck
November 18, 2024
What will be the barrel gas port solution be? Tap the hole and install a set screw or a gas block that does not have a provision for the gas tube?
John
November 18, 2024
There will be no gas system needed
GARTH DALSON
November 26, 2024
I don’t think you’re understanding the concept of how a bolt action rifle works. The only reason a semi auto AR needs a gas tube and gas block is to help the BCG cycle reliably after each shot. Bolt actions are not semi auto, you have to physically pull the bolt to the rear after you fire each shot. Why? Because there’s no gas port, block or tube to bring the gas back to the bolt. Hope that makes sense.
David Moore
November 18, 2024
Oh, this is going to be good. 300BAC suppressed bolt action in AR format. I am so looking forward to this.

I would like to be informed when this bolt action is ready for sale. I'm very interested for hunting deer in Pa.
Luis Ramos
November 24, 2024
Do you have any plans for a 22 ARC? With that short throw and a light recoiling bolt gun, I could be at the range all day. Let me know.
Darren Armstrong
November 28, 2024
I’d be interested in just the upper with the arc/grendel bolt. Basically have an ar chassis bolt action in 22arc. Could always turn the gas block around to block off the gas port.
Tom Mattingly
November 24, 2024
this would be awesome in 6.8 spc II, as bolt guns in this caliber are rare.
Patrick Crow
November 24, 2024
Logically NOT needing a buffer/buffer tube makes sense, but with the bolt upper would I be able to utilize a picatinny adapter to add a folding stock?
ANDREW KAMMERER
November 28, 2024
Second that question! I have a lower w/ a pic adapter and folding stock that I would love to throw this on for a lightweight 300blk whitetail rig.
Connor Romanzo-bertoldo
December 1, 2024
Yes
Chris Cooper
November 24, 2024
Would love to see this with some magnum calibers like your 7mm mag and 300. It would also be cool to see something like a 7mm-08.
Jeremy Cook
November 25, 2024
Great! more uppers to lose while boating.
Albert Crouch
November 25, 2024
Would like to see the 6.8 spc brought back again. But guess I’ll have to settle for 6.5 Grendel. I’ll be waiting patiently.
Donald Fykes
November 25, 2024
I want a 450!!!
Brenden Copeland
November 25, 2024
Finally a bolt with interchangeable AR components. 22-250 me please!!
William Hays
November 25, 2024
Will the bolt action be offered as a stand alone ? This would permit users to select their own calibers.
John
November 26, 2024
They will be normal AR uppers, but in bolt action style.
Matt
November 26, 2024
You finally read my email and took my advice! I told you guys were the only ones that could offer this product at an affordable price than what’s out there. I’m all in send it !
Darryl Gish
November 26, 2024
definitely interested in the ability to switch between semi-auto and bolt action on the same platform. Please let me know when available...especially in 300 blackout and/or 762x39. This would be cool!!!!
Martin Richey
November 26, 2024
I’m in for two, if left handed. 6mm ARC and 5.56, let me know when they’re available.
Gary Leigeber
November 26, 2024
Would love to know when the bolt action uppers come out . Thank you
Terry Watkins
November 27, 2024
Looking forward to the 6MM ARC bolt upper. Hornady has two reloading charts for the 6MM ARC cartridge, "bolt action" and "gas gun" with the max loads being 200-300fps slower for the "gas gun" loads. May ex[plain some of the over pressure comments from new 6MM owners that shoot the Hornady Black ammunition. Hopefully the new Bolt upper will handle the higher chamber pressures so users can take advantage of the higher velocity loads for long range shooting.
Jared Russell
November 27, 2024
I hope you make an lightweight version! 6arc preferred here.
Eric Drury
November 28, 2024
I’ll be waiting please let me know
Mark Martinez
November 29, 2024
Please hurry i have several BCA uppers and I love them all. Can't wait for the bolt action. I would like to see 1 in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 20ln barrel and the same in 6.5 grendel.
Jonathan Messer
November 29, 2024
Can't wait!
TIM HALL
November 29, 2024
I've been a AR platform shooter since 1981. Really curious about this one. I may pull the plug when introduced. I own 4 BCA uppers with no complaints. Thinking 22-250 when and if available for my homebuilt AR10 lower assembly.
David
November 29, 2024
I’m excited about these. But disappointed a bit in the starting calibers, I’m ready for a 308 or 6mm arc bolt when it comes out I’ll be buying one !
Dan Stensby
November 29, 2024
Interesting product- please bring out a .17 hm2 in bolt and semi auto!
Enigma

Will a person be able to just buy the bolt carrier to use with any lower⁰?
Dale A Lounsbury
November 30, 2024
Sweet, I'd be interested in the Bolt action platform in a 6.5 Grenade, and 224 Val, or 5.7 x 28. Keep me in the loop please!!! Dale
Dale A Lounsbury

Do you have the Lever action AR-15 available?
Octavio Munguia
December 1, 2024
Would you be selling this as a complete upper so we could just add it to the lower or would it be a complete riffle? Thanks.
WildTex
December 1, 2024
This would be an interesting rifle because you wouldn’t need the gas block on the barrel. It would look cool to have a slim line wood handguard and long 24” barrel.
Len Tucker

I'm really looking forward to this. I think it's going to add a whole new level of fun and utility to the AR platform. I'm interested in doing this for the AR10 world as well, after the AR15 version gets going of course...

Very interested. Will we be able to buy the upper receiver only?
Thomas Townsend
December 5, 2024
A lot of you would look a lot less foolish, if you read this article before submitting questions and comments. It also would be a great idea if you found out how a bolt action rifle works before asking questions about the gas system. My only question is how well 23° is going lock up at battery and if it's susceptible to having the bolt handle lifted unintentionally because of the short bolt handle rotation. I'll wait. Keep up the great work.
BCA Customer
