I picked up an Alexandria A3 forged upper receiver some time ago and am thinking about using it for my Stealth build.
I'm concerned about the upper being on the low side of the scale and don't want to jeopardize anything with this build. Should I toss the upper back in the parts bin and pick up a better quality stripped upper? If so which one would compliment the 16" Stealth barrel (with M4 ramps) the best? Thank you p.s. The build parts list ... LaRue 16" Stealth barrel w/ M4 feed ramps (also their barrel nut, gas block and gas tube) A2 flash suppressor (not sold on this yet) LT15-13.2 handguard BCM ambi charging handle Spike's T2 buffer JP extra power buffer spring Tactical Machining lower MBT BAD ambi safety PSA LPK AIM v2 bolt MagPul stock, grip, (probable)VFG and BUIS |

I need to spend some more time on LT's site ... I never saw that 
on edit: That upper doesn't have M4 feed ramps so as I understand it that would not work with my M4 feed ramp Stealth barrel |
