Posted: 1/9/2012 11:58:02 AM EDT

R Guns 20" Stainless Steel Varmint 5.56/.223 Upper Receiver ... For $419+ shipping from aimsurplus.com

I have lower ready and I was thinking about finishing my varmint build and that seems to feet my needs/wants/likes.
20” staneless barrel, free float tube, low profile gas block, flat top upper and it comes with bcg.

I'll be shooting this gun maybe 250-300 rounds a year. For fun..... no hunting.

What you guys think?

I like their stuff. I'm local to their shop and have always been well taken care of. I've heard horror stories about their customer service, but have never experienced it personally. Others will probably tell you that you can get better quality at a lower or equal price and that may be the case, but if you're set on getting it, I'm sure you'll be happy with it, their products have served me well with absolutely no problems.

Go over to equipment exchange and checkout complete uppers. You can get much better for a couple bucks more. Check Legal Transfers, they did real good for me....Mike

Thank you guys for replies! If I understand it correctly, from posts above, customer service is ”nay” and product is ”yay”.

It was also mentioned that I can get better deal.

if anyone be kind to me, please point me in the direction of 20” barrel upper with floating tube and low profile gasblock. Complete upper with varmint/bull barrel. I will be checking ee today when I get home from work :)
