That looks ok but for $20 more you can get this http://www.joeboboutfitters.com/JoeBobOutfitters_Premium_Complete_AR15_BCG_p/jb-premiumbcg.htm I am running an enhanced version of that one and I can say they are nice.

Not familiar with these guys. Angle-cut radius on the V2 must be intended to reduce friction? Wonder how it would wear. Personally, I'd go with mil-spec parts from manufacturers I'm more familiar with - but must admit, the big boys have been known to make glitch parts too.

AIM does back up their products.

I bought one to finish my ar build it seems good in the hands but I haven't fired it yet so can't answer that part of the question

I've always been a buy once cry once kinda guy sooo....

I'll recommend Colt, DD, BCM, or LMT BCG.

The BCM is $169 right meow

I was able to get a JoeBob BCG and there is no comparison! I have a BCM and Spikes Tactical and replaced the BCG with a JoeBob. What a diffference! It runs smoother and the recoil seems to be lessened. I don't know what they do different, but it's worth every penny.

Take a look at AO Precision from Midway USA.

These guys manufacture/supply bolts for many of the brand named rifles that are out there.

Well, for starters, they don't machine the firing pin retaining pin hole properly. The only thing I've been able to get to work with my joebob carriers is the KNS pin which is not only way more expensive to replace, but also an inferior design (the tabs break off ALL THE TIME....that's the reason the .mil moved away from that to a cotter pin). I'll stick with CMT, Young, or JP (depending on use).
