Just wondering which upper I should go with? I have a CMMG lower which is teflon coated, which uppers are there out there that have the same finish? I know CMMG offers one, are there any others?

14.5" middy with perm Vortex (but if you want a ff rail (dd, larue, et al) decide before they perm attach the vortex.)
ETA: I wouldn't give the "matching finish" too much concern. If you're not married to CMMG, why not go with BCM, Spikes, a DD upper, or something along those lines? |

Quoted:
Why would you go with any other than the CMMG? The quality is as good as any production rifle, and it'll match the finish of the lower. Find yourself a 16" mid length and you're set. I can't vouch for the CMMG M4 upper being "teflon coated" but they do go together just fine!

Match in finish to what? I don't think I've ever had an AR type riflr that exactly matchced upper and lower, but the CMMG with it's different finish is going to be a much more obvious mis-match with a non CMMG receiver than any other. Point is, the CMMG upper is plenty good AFA quality, relibility, and accuracy as any other, and will CLOSEST match hte CMMG lower.

| Mine don't perfectly match, but KNS Precision set me up with my complete CMMG lower, with a factory complete carbine RRA upper. The upper to lower fit was excellent and snug. Only issue i've had with CMMG lower is when I tried to put single point sling adapter/plate on. the rear of the lower made very plate we tried kind of teeter-totter, as it wasn't truly flat. I was told by the shop that they have seen this issue with other CMMG lowers. |

Who sells complete CMMG uppers?? Besides many site sponsors (e.g., AIM Surplus) I would highly recommend Southern Michigan Arms. Great customer service and even better pricing. I spec'd out an upper on CMMG's website, sent the details to Chuck, who then quoted me a super price (substantially lower than MSRP). |
