Still dont have enough rounds on my LMT enhanced BCG to give an opinion. So far, its fine. My build philosophy changed after I put it together and that is the reason for the low rounds count on it. Originally, I planned to use a fixed gas block on a shorter barrelthats the gas management issue it was designed to band-aid. Im now running adjustable gas blocks and tuning for specific loads. This approach is a trade-off. Not as reliable for temperature extremes or light loads, but it runs much smoother.
I originally bought an unusual version, carrier only (no bolt). I got a one-off result. Cant judge LMT or any other manufacturer for that, as Murphy plays in one-off situations. When I returned it for a complete BCG, I got a smooth finished, tight little gem. Customer service was great.
