| I am looking for an upper for my spikes lower that will fit tight without an accuwedge and the lines match up?? Any ideas? Thanks |

I would try a Spikes.
http://dsgarms.com/ProductInfo/SPKSFT50M4.aspx The Aero set that I have fit drum tight to each other. CMT upper on my Aero lower was a little loose. It's very easy to tighten up. I took some 3/16" (varies) rubber sheeting and cut a pad for the rear lug (under the takedown pin) Full service hardware stores sometimes have scrap rubber sheeting pieces for sale. Cut with scissors or use a grommet punch of the correct diameter. It's black, out of sight and doesn't carry the stigma of the orange thingie.

Due to tolerance stacking it's almost impossible to say that brand "X" upper will fit brand "Y" lower without any slop. Unless you buy a matched set (and still there is no guarantee) it's impossible to know until you try them together.
Just curious but why does it matter anyway? It effects the rifle in no way other than annoying someone that has OCD. |
