AR15 Uppers...WHERE??
Ok, I have my built AR lower. I have been looking for an upper, and NO ONE HAS ANY IN STOCK! This is silly. The more I think about it, the more I think I should have just bought the whole rifle instead of trying to save a few bucks and build one.
So, where can I find one, preferrably with an LE discount? These things are getting more expensive every day. Sheesh.

Noveske was backlogged about 12 weeks when I went through them. If you have the cash I heard that LaRue Tactical has some in stock. I just checked Noveske's site and they are still not accepting orders.

But from either of these two sources you are going to be looking at about 1200 plus for an upper. What is your price range?

Yup, verified. Just thought that this section would benefit tose others that are also looking for the elusive uppers, that's all.
I want an M4 upper, chrome lined barrel, and since I'll be shooting 55gr to 66 gr, a 1/7 twist should work just fine. The rest is negotiable.

DPMS. check it out.
The six o'clock ruleI tell them to act according to the six o'clock rule, a phrase that causes most of them to say, "Huh?"
I tell them to use this little test before they decide to do something. If they were to do what they're thinking about, and it became the lead story on the six o'clock news, would they be proud? Would their department be proud, and would their family be proud? It's a simple way to live your life both personally and professionally.

If you have the money POF makes badass uppers/weapons!
Romans 13:4
For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer.

Sorry my bad on the verified part.
DPMS usually has some good parts, dont know about any back log."An Unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it." Jeff Cooper

The 16” stainless steel barrel and free float hand-guard makes this rifle deadly accurate and easy to handle. A fixed A2 stock and A3 upper receiver allow easy use of optics and comfortable length and balance for shooters of all ages.The six o'clock ruleI tell them to act according to the six o'clock rule, a phrase that causes most of them to say, "Huh?"

Realy, where at? Every where I have looked for Colt rifles they have been above 2000 for a similar setup(Quad rails with a VBG and BUIS). The reason I ask is I am looking to pick up another and if you have a line on some cheaper Colts I would be interested. Originally Posted by maclean
