Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Just replaced an upper
Posted: 1/5/2012 5:57:23 PM EDT
I have BRD again. Got an itch to upgrade a few parts on my Bushmaster a2 carbine.  Just got done installing a flattop receiver and a free float rail.  Thought I would share my experience here.

Went from this


To



This was my first time changing actual parts on an AR15.  Did a little research on how to accomplish this.  After everything I heard I am really surprised how easy the front sight came off.  Only took one whack with a punch and hammer.
Didn't have any trouble during the install.  Can't wait to test it out.

I also just bought a striped lower the other day.  Decided to mod my existing rifle first as a warm up.
