I just purchased an upper in the EE and I'm not sure what it is. It is a 14 1/2 inch with affixed Phantom. The receiver is white t marked, doesn't have M4 cuts and has the broken A forge mark. The barrel is govt profile, chrome lined and stamped 5.56 NATO-1/9- CMV. The bore is chrome lined and the front sight is F marked Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Broken "A" is the Cardinal Forge marking I believe if memory serves right....very good quality, as all uppers for the military are from what I have seen. I work on them as a contractor and see all types of markings. Good deal!
Edited: after posting and moving on, I realized the screwup....oh well, everybody is entitled to at least 1 per day! |

Good deal! no it's not, cardinal forge is a little cardinal head broken a is anchor harvey. really the forge means very little, it's who did the final machining, finishing, and assembly, which is near impossible to tell from a forge code. as for the barrel, i'm not sure who uses that rollmark, maybe stag arms? |

Stag 2H is a gov't profile carbine. 16", 1/9, 5.56, chrome lined. I don't remember them marking the barrels CMV though. Every 2H I've seen was an M4 profile barrel. I've always seen government and M4 profile used interchangeably for 14.5/16" barrels Quoted:
Saber Defense? I think they sell barrels marked with that. my sabre has a weird rollmark, similar to the colt MPC bolt marking, it looks like a dot matrix printer, the sabre also has a lot # on it |

At one point PK firearms sold brld uppers where they would mate a phantom to a 14.5 brl and a CMT upper. I bought a "bushmaster" upper from them like that. Well built uppers for sure, but not factory. |
