I've got a very important question for /k/:
Alright, so I just got into the whole AR bullshit thing. I was in the Army over a decade ago, and I swear on all things good and holy I remember pic related being called a "bolt carrier assembly".
When the hell did this change? Why did this change? Or did it not change and I'm just an idiot with a defective memory?

We still call it that in the Army.. why would you ever think it changed name?

Everywhere I look in the civilian world it's "bolt carrier group"

I think because the word "assembly" in it confuses stupid people, ie almost everyone.

in 10 years it'll only be known as 'bcg' with no one remembering what it stood for

'group' and 'assembly' mean the same thing when describing a, wait for it, *group* of parts that serve a particular function in a machine
