[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Good place for A1 parts?

Posted: 8/18/2004 4:22:07 AM EDT

Does anyone know where a good place to get A1 parts is? I am looking for an A1 style pistol grip and A1 upper receiver with a forward assyst but no shell deflector. Also flat delta rings or handguard retainer or whatever you want to call it.

TIA

Check the Equipment Exchange section of this site; the used parts section. There are always guys on there advertising A1 type uppers, and A1 pistol grips for that matter. See if you can find someone who has both, so you only have to pay one shipping charge. If you can't, I've got a bunch of new appearing grips that came in a stock order. If you want one, e mail me, and I'll send one out for $7 ($5 + $2 shpg).

Thanks, I will probably be contacting you soon on that. I am still recovering from my last build right now so I am just getting the parts source list compiled right now.

BILLBO over in EE. Just do a search on his name. I bought an A1 slab-side upper from him and his delivery was fast and the part was as I expected.

I dont want a slab side, it has to have a forward assyst on it.

I'm pretty sure Bilbo has FA type uppers too; and he probably has some A1 type grips. If not, just keep an eye on the EE section for a few days. Someone will post one

I just emailed him about it but I got a reply that he is away till next week. Oh well, I will either buy his or find another one.

I have dealt with Billbo before, good guy, good quality. He will give you an honest deal.
