Faxon Gen 2 .308 / 6.5 Creedmoor / 8.6 BLK BCG – Precision, Power, and Reliability
Designed for AR-10 platforms and built to last, the Faxon Gen 2 Bolt Carrier Group delivers performance you can count on in demanding conditions. This complete BCG is fully compatible with .308, 6.5 Creedmoor, and 8.6 Blackout setups, making it a top-tier choice for precision shooters, hunters, and tactical rifle builders.
At the heart of this carrier group is a 9310 steel bolt that’s been magnetic particle inspected (MPI) and shot-peened for exceptional strength and reliability. The entire assembly is treated with a salt bath nitride finish, offering superior corrosion resistance, smoother operation, and easier maintenance over phosphate or chrome options.
Faxon’s Gen 2 design brings refinements like chamfered bolt lugs for smoother cycling and better tolerance of high-pressure loads. A superfinished carrier and properly staked grade 8 gas key ensure consistent performance, even under rapid fire.
Whether you’re building out a precision 6.5 Creedmoor rifle or an 8.6 BLK big bore AR, this BCG is designed to deliver — shot after shot.
