With the exception of Colt and FNs military production. there are no makers markings on uppers.  What appears on uppers is (usually) the ID of the forge that produced the raw forgings.  Since all the producers will use forgings from the same places, that forge mark tells you nothing about who actually made the piece.

The link is a great resource for forge markings. Thanks! My question.... what about uppers without any forge markings. All my Bushmasters, RRA's and DPMS have marked uppers, but I do have another upper with no markings. I have seen others as well. What gives?

Every Bushmaster I've every had has been a Cerro Forge (keyhole) upper. The forge mark on a flat top upper is located just behind the deflector.
