How many gun parts walked out of the factory? How many were built, using those parts, for MS13 or other illegals.

No wonder their stuff is so cheap, lol

There may be ITAR issues which could cause some real problems for BCA.

Juan MOA barrels?

Juan MOA barrels?

Best joke I've seen in while!

Juan MOA barrels?

Good Juan, although probably not politically correct....which makes it even better.

Maybe we can look forward to better quality and more expensive barrels from BCA.

Interesting review of a tour of BCA; https://gear-report.com/bear-creek-a...p-factory-tour

The situation is this as given to me during a phone call to BCA yesterday. The issue that led to the "raid" was that there were approximately 30 employees hire after EVerify vetting for I9 and other employment forms. ALL new hires that were scooped up during the "Raid" passed the EVerify vetting process. It was eluded that the hiring had been done via an employment agency. Said employment agency apparently was under the watchful eye of ICE. BCA evidently had been cooperating with ICE and according the the lady I spoke with , remain cooperating and are "in the good graces" of ICE. That was all teh lady was able to tell me other than the employment agency had been hired to help catch up on back orders due to unexpected surge of purchases.

All that said, in all my years it STILL ceases to amaze me how the shooting community will dogpile and eat there own. This is the third forum where BCA has just been eviscerated without apparently anyone doing any first hand fact checking. It stuns me. We need to remember that the LEFT is ALWAYS looking for ammunition to use against us...we NEED TO QUIT HELPING THEM

Some people get their only exercise by jumping to conclusions, skipping over the facts and leaps of judgement. Just remember, if you're reading it on the interwebs, you are almost certainly getting shorted on facts.

No evisceration here of BCA. There is one joke, a couple comments about the quality (which is not the first time this sentiment has been expreseed) and concern that the illegal workers may have stolen from BCA. Try rereading.

As for going to the source and checking "the facts," of course BCA is going to say everything is great. It is in their best interest to do so. Maybe it really is, but they would hardly be the unbiased source. I haven't seen where ICE has said that they were cooperating fully. The company has "confirmed" many things for ICE, but no such statements from ICE, yet. In short, you have no independent confirmation.

It's good to know BCA's HR department is better than their QC department. Although, if they weren't such a turd sandwich they wouldn't be using a temp agency. I have no idea if they're guilty or not of hiring illegals but they sure are guilty of turning out garbage barrels.

Its funny and scary how if you say BCA on forums the number of people that SCREAM junk.
I have had nothing but positive experiences with them. Calls answered and question answered before I placed my 1st order.
Quick shipping and questions answered after purchase.
I checked BBB fr their area and all problems seem to be handled that got that far.
