Question about a couple or Bravo Company rifles

Hi my righteous peoples,

I have a few BCM questions. Basically , I have an AR now that I like very much , a highly Magpul'd Bushmaster. This is a 14.5" carbine with a 3" AK74 muzzle brake and an Aimpoint Micro red dot sight. So this is my grab and go rifle and of course it's more of a CQB design.

If I could have my absolute wish I'd have ( minimum) 3 ARs , my current CQB style, a , say 16" mid length, as a general purpose combat rifle with maybe a nice 4x ACOG, - and then a real nice 18" Special Purpose Rifle , SPR MK 12. That would be hooked up real real nicely with a Harris bipod , maybe a laser , and a Trijicon AccuPoint 2.5-10x56 or 5-20x50 --- of course who has the money for all these right ?

My current priority is some sort of good quality , scoped AR that takes over the 200-300yds I'm told I could / can reasonably expect to hit with my current AR and Aimpoint ( assuming proper operation lol, ammo etc). I do not have a scoped hunting or ' sniper rifle' in my portfolio so it's a need I really want to address.

At some point next year I should be settling y workers comp case from major back surgery - at such point I will be buying some sort of high high quality sniper rifle type deal. I.e. I might do two M1As - a SOCOM 16 & Aimpoint with an M21 And AccuPoint ... Or I've considered a full on M24 SWS from Remington , yeah you can buy the whole shebang. And I'd stock a few grand of 7.62s to go with them. The point is eventually in a year or so I'm gonna get at least one sweet prcision rifle rig in a dEcent caliber. But until then I really wanna add a scoped , longer range AR to my portfolio so I can share my current ammo, I'm familiar with operations , and I have the capability to take out and use a fairly accurate, high quality AR with a good scope for sneaking and peeking in a SHTF situation ( personally I'm big on weapon preparedness for SHTF .... it's coming brothers it is definitely coming)

Which finally brings me to my BCMquestions. Where do they, or even Do They? Sell their Mk 12 / Spr's? I see a bunch of different BCM mk 12 uppers , which are about $1,200 bare min to like $1,750 more realistically ... But I see no actual rifles... So I figure then it's what like $5-600 for the lower rig ( pick a decent lower receiver , parts kit, say Magpul pistol grip , trigger guard , $250 Stock < PRS for me , others may like the UBR or even Lmt/Vltor's newer offerings >) ... say we're at $2200 now , and for a comparabl scope , I like the AccuPoints add on another $1000. So we'r talking like $3000 easy for a BCM MK 12 ..

Or what I DO see available for sale on the Net.... For like $1,200 bucks , is a BCM RECCE 16. This little bad boy looks awesome. 16" SS mid length , flat top / 12" LaRue? I think quad rail, ... Then I can just change the muzzle device ( in NJ Can't have flash Hiders anyway) , maybe go with an ACS stock rather than the PRS ( would u like th look of a PRS on a smaller rifle ?) put a bipod , AFG, MBUS, and scope on top and have a more SEAL Recon Rifle / squad designated marksman rifle AR ... and probably be saving at least a grand outta it.

What do you think, I'm Not real familiar at all with Bcm stuff - other than their Stellar reputation and immense internet popularity and or course , they never have in stock 90% of the stuff they claim to s
 
One last thing - I've also had a backup plan fr a while , prob not very popular around hEre - but I think a Remington R-15 VTR PREDATOR CARBINE would make an awesome base for a SPR. it's actually built from ground up as a hunting AR( what is a SPR but a person hunting AR-15?) ... It's got a flat top upper, 18" stainless bbl with target crown , a free float handguard tube , etc ...

This is like less than $1,000- i can then easily swap the A2 stock for a PRS by Magpul, change out the pistol grip, i COULD use the handguard but more likely I'd either install a full quad rail or the actual MK 12 Mod 0 hand guard by PRI... then add a bipod up front , a Magpul AFG , some MBUS and my scope ... I'd be left with a camo'd receiver but otherwise a solid color pattern on all the furniture ( be it black , green, or even FDE) and probably an amazing rifle for the price.
 
Which finally brings me to my BCMquestions. Where do they, or even Do They? Sell their Mk 12 / Spr's?
I don't believe that they sell too many complete rifles. All lowers are pretty much the same, so you just buy the the upper/bcg from them and pick up a lower locally.

As far as the BCM in general, I have one of their Recce rifles, and I'm nothing but impressed with it. What they have in stock goes fast, so you really want something, you pretty much just have to stalk daily, and pounce when it gets in.
