Now I know this is a Dumb question but before I go to the store I bought the BCG at all aggravated and pissed off, I want to make sure that I am correct in my thinking here. Now whenever in the past, I have bought A BCG for one of my standard Ar it has always come with a firing pin in the BCG. The other day I purchased a New BCG for my 9mm Build. Now I was having some issues during function testing, had to play around with some other items on the lower, mostly the mag release and the extractor, after those issues were solved, I noticed that the magazine would not seat when the bolt was closed, After investigating a little further, I saw that it was being prevented from seating because it was hitting the BCG, This caused me to remove the BCG and inspect it, Upon inspection, I noticed that there was no firing pin! I pulled up the item on the stores web site to see if this item was to be purchased separately and there was no mention, I also noticed that the BCG that I had, did NOT match the photo of the one on their web site.
Now My question is, shouldnt the BCG have come with the firing pin? And shouldnt the Gun shop employee have verified the BCG was good to go? also the secondary "AR GUY" should have verified it or caught that after I had asked him to double check that I had everything that was needed? With the additional not seating issue I am having I am even wondering if it is the correct BCG for my application My receipt says it is for a glock magazine, but I am having issues, The BCG did not come in a box or a tube, just handed to me from the glass case, and does not look like the one in the photo, or any other brand BCG for 9mm that I looked at. Considering that the employee either was not thorough enough, did not care or did not know enough to realize there was no firing pin, Its reasonable to believe that he could have given me the incorrect BCG.
Let me know if im off base here Guys, I am pissed off, Ill take a portion of the blame because I did not check or notice this myself But a certain level of trust or confidence is what I had for this store not to mention I was in a rush that day and just got off the road from east hampton.
When you buy a complete BCG that includes a firing pin right?
