Contacted Bear Creek and they determined they had likely received a bad batch of firing on springs. This should indicate that most other BC9s going out shouldn’t have the same issue as mine.
@@clckhere878 actually I didn’t really expect it to get much attention at all. It’s really just to help the few people looking to buy them get a better understanding of what they are getting themselves into.
You would think a completed firearm would be checked at some point before leaving the manufacturer. QC/safety issue. Inexpensive is good, faulty is bad.
Nice man! be careful with that slam fire and double fire effect at mine had. You will also need to retorque and apply lock tight to all screws. if yours does slam fire or double fire like mine, just buy a CMMG AR9 firing pin spring. You may actually want to order it ahead of time.
It's always the control factor, hence - dingus behind the trigger. No different than driver behind the wheel. Any forward motion is the operators responsible for @@ninjainflannel
Yeah the QC is rough. The 1/2 x 36 threads were really annoying and it not having last should bolt hold open. I will say once I get everything tightened up and replaced that spring it shot pretty nice
@ninjainflannel Did you buy the tailhook and the collapsible pdw adapter with rods all seperate? Ones I've seen are expensive like 300+! Has me thinking to go Jmac skeleton.
You can make a lot of AR15s slam fire by dropping the bolt on a chambered round. Probably easier for it to happen on a blowback 9mm, but just not a good idea to do it in general. I think they should have gone a good but heavier on the bolt. Recoil would be better.
@@ninjainflannel Probably related to the light bolt and stuff spring not resetting the hammer properly sometimes. Impossible to say for sure without inspection.
That was actually my initial thought as well. It actually ended up being the firing pin spring. It was too week so just the bolt slamming home would let it fire
I’ve never seen an AR slam fire, I’ve seen a tiny mark on the primer where the firing pin hits but I’ve never seen one actually fire from dropping the bolt on a live round. Also why would a heavier bolt make recoil better? That’s more mass moving back and fourth I’d think it would make for worse recoil.
@@itsamk18-ish Pistol ammo primers are softer than rifle ones. A heavier bolt would lower the bolt velocity so it’s not slamming hard into the rear of the receiver.

Man sucks this didn't get the attention you thought it would...

That's total b.s. BC has a well deserved reputation for being a total poc.
Is this a issue with all of them

Wow that’s scary. Glad you caught this before someone was hurt!!
What are the two braces you used for this pistol? I see the Ak style one but what’s the other one I like it.
One is a crappy SB tactical brace and the other is an A3 tactical brace
@@ninjainflannel gotcha theyre sending me one out and I’m trying to figure which brace I want

@@ninjainflannel okay thanks Buddy shoot me a email.
@JTSHOOTERREVIEWS will do
1/2x36 was done on some 9mm so idiots don’t put 556 muzzle devices
Mmmmm that’s the best reason I have heard. Idiot proof lol

This could been a good product I'd rather them charge another $100 or so to get better on QC this is crazy.

@ninjainflannel Buying an EPC9 the fit finish and qc were top notch not one single flaw or failure.
Nice! My primary PCC is the Stribog. 5” roller delay model. One of my favorite guns of all time
I have always had good experiences with Aero though.

True however this was double firing during normal operation as well
