I get about 100 questions a week on BCM Blem lowers. “How bad are they? Is it functional? Is there a warranty on them?”
So I decided to do a master thread that people can reference with all questions answered and pics of said lower.
Answers:
Blem lowers use the same parts as found in the regular lowers.
Their roll mark is different in that it has “BCM” Spelled out.
Blem lowers are just as functional as non-blem lowers.
The “blem” could be anything from a scratch, dent or ding SOMEWHERE on the lower (varies from lower to lower). Some have NO marks on them (as seen on the one below).
Blem lowers have the same warranty as non-blem lowers.
I’d guess that 99 times out of a hundred, you don’t know a lower will be blem until it’s already been roll marked, serial numbered, and annodized, Bubba.
Very true, and hell once you use it once itll get blemed anyways. I personaly dont care if its blem or not as long as they work, my cmmg and noveske lowers are blems.
I actually prefer the rollmark on the blem lowers vs. the non-blem ones. I had the same questions about these lowers, thanks for putting all of the answers here Grant.
I would be interested in pics of one that you consider to be “worse” than the others, just for perspective. Showing that your blemished lower could range from this (nothing visible) to this (scratched & dented)
I couldn’t find the alleged “blems” on any of mine. These are a great value for a top notch factory built lower especially when you consider how picky Paul is with his parts.
