[ARCHIVED THREAD] - help with upper reciever selection

Posted: 12/24/2004 7:29:53 AM EDT

I am getting ready to build an AR using up some of the spare parts that I have accumulated. So far the rifles that I use have Bushmaster upper recievers. Bushmaster claims that their uppers are coated inside with teflon or something. I was wodering if any of the other uppers on the market (RRA, Armalite) would wear just as well as a Bushmaster. Even though I am building a parts gun, I would like to use quality components that will last with proper maintenance.

I would use LMT if I wanted the M4 feed ramp cuts. Otherwise it's RRA.

I used a RRA on my first build. Fit and finish is first rate.

+1 (CMT actually machines alot of these for some of the "big guys")

And you can get CMT uppers with the M4 cuts.
