The Faxon FF76239 Bolt Carrier Group delivers enhanced reliability and extended service life for 7.62x39 AR platforms. This precision-engineered BCG features premium 9310 steel construction with advanced nitride coating for superior corrosion resistance and reduced friction.
What Makes This Different
Faxon's Type 1 bolt carrier group stands apart from standard offerings through its use of 9310 steel rather than typical Carpenter 158 steel. The nitride coating penetrates the steel surface rather than simply coating it, creating a harder, more durable finish that maintains lubricity even under extreme conditions. This results in smoother cycling and reduced wear on critical components compared to phosphate or chrome-lined alternatives.
Key Features
- 9310 steel bolt construction for enhanced strength and longevity
- Nitride coating provides superior corrosion resistance and self-lubrication
- Precision machined gas key properly staked and sealed
- MPI tested bolt for structural integrity assurance
- Compatible with standard AR-15 lower receivers chambered in 7.62x39
- Shot-peened bolt for stress relief and crack resistance
- Includes bolt, bolt carrier, firing pin, cam pin, and retaining pin
This bolt carrier group performs consistently across various ammunition types and environmental conditions. The nitride treatment maintains function in sandy, dusty environments where traditional coatings may accumulate debris. Competition shooters benefit from the consistent lockup and timing, while tactical applications demand the reliability this BCG provides through extended firing schedules without cleaning intervals.
