Hi gang, I'm ordering a custom engraved Superior lower from Robert and Krista at rbprecision. Any thoughts on a good upper or good upper parts to mate with the Superior lower? Seeing as this will be my first build I'd like it to go smoothly. Would I be better buying a complete upper or build it myself?
Thanks mack

Come on guys...no responses to this newbies request?? Surely someone has built an AR from a Superior lower...

My son built his first AR on a Superior lower using all parts he scored off the EE.  I do not own a Superior lower... yet, but if I were building my first AR again I would probably buy a rifle kit from Del-Ton again.  Their prices are reasonable and their shipping time is very fast.  I ordered my kit and had it in my hands less than a week later.

I've got 2 Superior lowers on order from RB Precision. I'm confident that any of my uppers will fit just fine. If you're concerned about an upper which closely matches the color mof the Superior lower, I would ask Robert. He would know better than anyone.

I have a Superior lower, but I dont have a upper for it yet.

I would say the color looks close to Stag's.

Wait until their uppers come out

When I talked to Robert and Leo (from Superior Arms) back in June at Buffalo Range, they said they were planning on releasing them this fall sometime.

I did get to shoot one of their very early uppers that they had on-hand at that shoot, though. Had a Wilson barrel and their upper. The finish was really nice and would match their lower perfectly.

Maybe they are going to release their upper at the DesMoines gun show. In the hometown forum Leo talks about a suprise. Read more here.
