I tried to pick one of those upper parts kits up - and balked on the commitment ... before they went out of stock the other day.
How is the quality ? Very used ?

I've never taken an armorers course though so I wasn't sure if it is possible that a bunch of monkeys were beating on the shit with hammers or whatnot "learning" how to take down and reassemble the parts. I'm sure that they are worth it - just curious is all. |

I passed by the SP1s for a long time, simply because of the screw pivot pin rather than a push pin. Now I wish I had started buying them when they were cheap. I still need a rifle. |
