I have someone who want to sell me an upper off of an old colt pre ban AR known as a Colt Target Match Competition. The lower to this rifle they no longer or never owned. I was told it was destroyed and no longer exist. All they have is an upper for sale with no flash suppressor or threaded bbl.
A local gun store has some striped lowers for sale for about $90.00 of which I hear have to be registered as if they were the entire gun even though there are no parts in it. I was also told if I build an AR on a new lower using an old upper I have have to build the lower to Ca compliant standards which means a bullet release button not a normal mag release button like normal people have. My major concern is will the old colt upper fit onto this new lower without a problem. I was told some Colts used large pins but have no clue if this upper has large pins or small pins. |

1. You are in Cali, better make sure your within the rules there. 2. You can get better lower prices going with advertisers here. $90 isn't bad for local shop pricing, if you don't have to ship it or wait for one. You can find a blem or an Anderson for around $50.00 plus shipping and background check. Usually $20.00 for background check/FFL fee.
Read the tacked newbie threads here first! Then start to build.
