The best you could hope for is to find them at a Fun Show.  They stock alot of them for the larger shows.  I've had minor problems with their M-4 uppers not liking steel cased ammo, but 5 minutes with an electric drill and some flitz polished the chamber nicely and it runs like a champ now.

mine has been running solid for 7 years.  Beware of using a CC on their website though. If you order us a usps mo to pay with.  Also, call and make sure that whatever it is that you want is in stock.

I have a complete 11.5" upper from them and also a 14.5" M4 barrel.   No problems with either.

Midway carries some of their stuff.
Check MidwayUSA for your upper.

I purchased a 7.62x39 AWB compliant upper from them around November of last year. Got a few hundred rounds through it without any issues regarding the upper. Had some feed issues, but that was mag related and expected in that variant. I've heard stories about credit fraud in the past, but I've also read it's no longer an issue. I paid credit and haven't had any negative ramifications. Prices are good and E.R. Shaw barrels are regarded as decent quality. Took about a week to get the upper from when I ordered it. Overall it was/has been a positive experience and would recommend them. Good luck.

Shooting the following Model 1 uppers with no problems:

20" 5.56 chrome lined
11.5" 5.56 chrome lined
11.5" 7.62x39 not chrome lined

I have built three weapons with M1S upper assemblies and LPKs.
The finish on the uppers was crap.
All three shoot well.

I have been interested in their uppers for several years now but i could take the plunge.  I hate to waste my money on inferior parts that get me sub par performance.  Their price tags are very low which is nice, but with low price tags do you get low quality?

My upper receiver was T marked and had the keyhole logo.  Barrel was M-4 marked with M-4 barrel extension and upper receiver.  After polishing the chamber ran great.

No, the barrels are made by ER Shaw. They are good barrels.

I have had great luck with Model 1 with the exception of their bolts. I've bought two bolts from them, one parkerized and one chrome, and both cracked in the firing pin key hole after about 1,000 rounds.
