Received the 5.45 carbine base upper blem Monday. After close examination, I have had a hard time finding the Blem or blems. Regular price is $636, Blem is $477. I have another 5.45 Adams Arms with Rock River lower. Shoots great after running 10 different ASC magazines. 7 of the 10 mags worked just fine, the other 3 would not feed. Is the a method to dissemble the mag an lub it or something? Rifle will shoot a nice group at 100 yards. Will look through the Crossroads of the West for a lower for "Blem" upper.

Of course now that I have the two 5.45 AR's and 3 AK74's the price and availability of 5.45 ammo has made the 5.56 AR an equally viable option. Guess I'll give a Adams Arms Blem 5.56 upper a try next.

Can't go wrong with any of them. My 5.56 upper eats anything and mates with any of my lowers, pig that it is

Had the chance to take the Adams Arms 5.45 carbine "blem" to the range. The rifle shot just great and did the other Adams 5.45 I have. The next purchase will be a "blem" 5.56 upper from Adams Arms.
