Is the going rate for A1 uppers now $150 stripped / $200 complete? Additionally anyone know what 20" CMPC barrels are fetching these days? Only asking as I may want to liquidate one of mine to purchase aforementioned uppers.

Been scouring the EE, and boy is it dry out there.

Original ones have been fetching north of 300 or more on gunbroker lately from my observations.

Brownells has theirs back in stock but theyre black.

I got a slick side with barrel for 250 3 months ago. I got a C7 upper for 130, and an A1 for 140 about 4 months ago. All of them were bought on the EE, and all were complete uppers.

Those are some sweet prices. I'm sure there's a couple guys with a closet full of them.

The going rate for forward assist uppers varies. It depends on if they are original XM16E1 or M16A1 uppers. It also depends on condition. An original XM16E1 stripped upper can go north of $350 easily. An original stripped M16A1 upper is going for over $200, closer to $300 these days. A C MP C barrel assembly, complete with barrel nut and FSB, can fetch $350-$400 easily. Of course, you have to find someone willing to pay a premium for these items. Guys who are looking for original parts will. Others will buy the 20" 1/12 barrel assemblies from Brownells.

I hope so. Mainly a lot of waiting and negotiating pays off.
