Well the owner of BCM hasn't made anti-2A statements, so I would recommend going with BCM.

I'm looking to get a complete upper. I've narrowed it down to either the 11.5 bcm with qrf rail or the Daniel defense mk18. If you have any input it would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I think the cool protest thing to do is burn stuff these days...Wait. Do I need to sell my DD upper?
This actually holds a lot more merit present day than I believe it did in the past. Not because Aero got better, but because people have tested the BA barrels and we know the Aero recievers are quality. I actually have the same number of Aero complete uppers as I do BCM and Colt (2 each).I’d buy an aero precision before I bought either dd or BCM.
Spend the money left in trigger, ammo, or optic.

BCM was the best value and performance when I bought mine in 2009. That's when they did the "buy the upper get the BCG and CH free" promo a couple of times a year. I don't think they've done that in easily 5 years that I am aware.
Agreed, but I know BA wasn't known at the time, I don't know about Rainier. I feel like BCM is what you buy to run carbine classes and shoot 10,000 rounds through a year. Otherwise, lots of other value purchases out there.I bought 2 BCM uppers during those deals, making 3 total at the time. I only have one of those factory uppers left. Using BA or rainer barrels with Aero precision components. All have ran flawless with anything I feed them.
You can’t go wrong either way. But The premium prices of BCM and DD only get you a warranty. I prefer to use the extra money to build a more accurate rifle.
I don't know about Rainier
No, I know about Rainier now, I don't know if they were as well established and known in the mid to late 2000s.Rainier Arms makes some great quality barrels and parts in my experience. @11B CIB has done some in depth testing and shooting with their barrels.

Thanks for all the info. I ended up getting the dd. Found one with bcg for the same price as the bcm without one.
