Welcome to the March edition of the Bear Creek Arsenal NEWSLETTER. For some reason March triggers a lot of sports fans to get mad. It is all over the TV. Could be the pollen.
PRODUCT NEWS
The 6mm ARC (6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge) complete upper assemblies are already available in 16’, 18”, 20”, and 24”. An array of parkerized, stainless steel, fluted, heavy and M4 contour options can be selected. This is a multi-use caliber. It is perfectly matched to deer-sized animals out to 500 yards (point-of-impact energy over 900 ft. lbs.) Target and competition shooters appreciate the low recoil and phenomenal accuracy. Its parent case is the 6.5 Grendel so both calibers use the same magazine and bolt carrier group.
Back by popular demand: 5.56 Nato in 22” and 24”. Long-range shooters love these for the extra velocity they provide which translates to better down-range accuracy. Availability will be on the website by the middle of April.
An update: The BC-202, in.22 WMR (.22 Magnum), will be available in late April. It will have all the same features as the BC-201 (.22 Long Rifle) which is already available.
Be sure to check the website for THREADED BARRELS in the .22 LR in the near future. Currently we offer 20” stainless steel bull barrel with target crown.
BC-201 in .22 LR NOW AVAILABLE
Also in April, the much-anticipated Grizzly 9mm handgun will be released. This is a first for BCA: a polymer lower handgun manufactured completely in-house. This is full-sized with RMR cut for optics and slide serrations.
We are also expanding the caliber selection of our Nickel-Boron BCG to 6.5 Grendel, both rear and side-charging. Our AR10 calibers are included as well: .308, .243, .22-250, and 6.5 Creedmoor. The major advantages of Nickel-Boron are: reliability, very easy to clean, and how cool they look!!!
