Stern Defense 9mm Bolt Carrier Group - NIB/Phosphate Hybrid AR15/M16

The Stern Defense 004SDBU9NIBECHOD2M bolt carrier group transforms standard AR15/M16 platforms into reliable 9mm carbines. This hybrid-finished BCG eliminates the complexity of blowback systems while maintaining the familiar AR platform controls and manual of arms.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard direct blowback 9mm conversions, this bolt carrier group features a hybrid NIB (Nickel Boron) and magnetic phosphate finish on precision-machined 8620 steel. The dual finish system provides enhanced corrosion resistance in high-wear areas while maintaining cost-effectiveness. This BCG accepts standard Glock-pattern magazines through compatible magazine wells, eliminating proprietary magazine concerns.

Key Features

• Hybrid NIB/Magnetic Phosphate finish on 8620 steel construction
• Compatible with AR15/M16 lower receivers and standard controls
• Accepts Glock-pattern magazines with proper magazine well
• Precision-machined bolt face for consistent headspace
• Standard AR15 charging handle compatibility
• Reduced friction coating extends service intervals
• Drop-in installation with no permanent modifications required

This bolt carrier group performs reliably across various 9mm loadings from 115-grain FMJ training rounds to 147-grain subsonic ammunition. The hybrid finish reduces fouling buildup during extended range sessions while the 8620 steel construction handles the pressures of +P ammunition. Law enforcement agencies and competitive shooters benefit from the familiar AR platform ergonomics combined with pistol cartridge economics.
