I am lookihg for a new colt M16A1  upper. I contacted buffer tech and cdnn and they are out. Does anybody know where else I can get one or does anybody have one they would want to sell? If somebody has one i would prefer a new one if so. You can email me at [email protected] Thanks John

The uppers that these Co's had for sale were NOT SP1 uppers. They were M16A1 (mostly USAF) take-offs from the A2 PIP.

These uppers had foward assists - the SP1 does not.

The pivot pin hole on these uppers takes the mil std .250" push pin - the SP1 upper is set up for the .315" two-screw pivot.

These Co's advertise them as SP1 uppers either out of ignorance or avarice - I don't know which.

If what you truly wanted was an SP1 upper, be glad they were out of them .

No problem.

I purchased one of these from Kiesler's a few months ago. It looks new, still had grease on some of the parts. I'm pleased with what I got from them.

Where is the guy located at that you bought the upper from? Was it a colt upper? Did it come complete with the bolt and bolt carrier?

KIesler's still has some as of about a hour ago.  I know there is one sitting in the display case.  Call, don't e-mail as you will go to internet sales and you want retail, extension 4.  Ask for Corky, Chris, Perry, or James.
