back in the mid-eighties I built a standard model from a kit from ....nesards.. with a pwa forged lower and upper.
it's been a fine shooter but lacks the adjustable rear sight of the newer models. I found a new a-2 upper fully loaded(sight and ejection door). since it's been decades since i asembled it, can anyone reccomend a disassembley/reassembly procedure plus any procedures required for the final fitting of the barrel to the new upper receiver? thanks in advance... |

Check the hometown forum as well: http://www.ar15.com/forums/forum.html?b=8&f=15
We have a pretty active crew and there's a good chance someone local to you can lend a hand or watch over your shoulder. We've even built a lower in a sports bar.

well, acman i think i'll hang onto the upper....you never know when you might need it!
thank you both for your replies! both sites look good and i love doing things myself! this is a great forum! my biggest concern was barrel and upper alignment and torque. as long as i'm at it, i'm gonna' look for a better grade barrel. i know my m1a match shoots better than i do but i find i can shoot better than my ar15 and i need the better rifle to grow into, if you get my drift. thanks again! i'll be back! shag |
