AR upper selection
Any good web sites to see a big selection of uppers available?
Caliber wise that is.


Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking.

Larger hunting type rounds

Niche use, suppressed with subsonic ammo:

This is a brief list. There are hundreds of custom options.

I second RHINOWSO's link to the AERO upper as a solid option for .223/300 BO...this makes for an easy to build upper with many advantages (the full float hand-guard attachment forged into the upper for a one piece mount plus not having to mess with gas tube alignment...plus the proprietary barrel nut and wrench comes with the upper)...the necessity of having to use the AERO hand-guard was not an issue with me as they have really good hand-guards especially for the price point...some judicious interweb shopping can usually find them at a better price...
