Saint BCG maker

[JW1234]

HI all, second post, so still pretty new here. Can't find any specific info on who makes the BCG for the springfield armory saint. I am curious if the palmetto state armory MFR#tcfa011556hpt bcg, would be an upgrade? I think it would given the testing listed on the latter is more comprehensive than the former. bcg. https://www.ammoland.com/2018/09/psa-5-56-premium-full-auto-bolt-carrier-group/#axzz6KgI9ElQ4. Please advise. Thanks in advance for your help.

Springfield makes their own, and they have pretty much everything you would look for in a mil spec and above BCG. Everything listed on the Palmetto one Springfield also has. Springfield also melonites their bolt something most manufacturers don’t do since it adds to cost.

Thanks man, I saw their name on the BCG, but thought maybe they made a deal with a manufacturer. I was unaware if they make their own lowers. but there names are all over that as well.

Everything after forging is done in house by Springfield Armory. They use Anchor Harvey forgings. The Edge series lowers start from 7075 T6 billets.

No AR company, not even colt or FN own a forging source. They even buy the raw forgings from about a dozen different companies.
