Windham Weaponry A2 Upper Assembly That has a detachable carry handle. Sorry. Their description is misleading. I did not look at the full description or picture very closely. You do have the option of buying a complete A2 upper receiver and n A2 Gov't barrel assembly and building your own upper assembly. That is what I did. |

Yeah that's probably the route I'll end up having to go. I just can't believe that no one is making one of these uppers. I didn't really want to have to put one together myself, this rifle won't get shot much. I just want an M16A2 look alike that will mostly be sitting in my safe. |

The first A2 upper receiver I bought was from Rock River. It came in and I found it had their logo laser engraved. I did use that on a pistol, but later bought a DPMS A2 upper Receiver and used a Rock River sight. It turned out very nice.
Point is, maybe if you build your own complete upper, you won't be subject to such a limited availability of the type uppers you seek. |

Are you sure? http://www.rockriverarms.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=267 I just used their drop down option menus to configure the upper as standard. |
