I have a small pile of Colt DI uppers in various lengths. The most expensive ran me just under $500 - most set me back about $300/per. We're discussing RRs. They are expensive b/c they have happy switches. We buy them b/c we wish to use the happy switches. So it makes sense to buy uppers for full-auto use. Now FA is rough on barrels. It doesn't matter whether the barrel comes from Model 1 or Noveske. Heat accelerates wear like crazy - chrome or no-chrome. Why spend $1000+ on an uber-cool piston upper that will not hit burning cars and tannerite sticks any better than will a $300 upper? Why spend $1000 on an upper that will - 3k or so later - be a 12 MOA blaster.........unless I really baby it...........or just shoot semi-auto? (see paragraph 2) Yes, the expensive barrels are doubtless more accurate out of the gate. How much more accurate is the $1000 upper vs the $300 upper when using steel-cased Russian .223........in full auto? And as for ammo, if I'm going to shoot 2 cases of ammo in just one 24 hr period why would I spend $330/case when I can spend $200/case on steel that is every bit as reliable, in terms of function? I'll pocket the $260, thanks..........or just shoot more. 
Sam Wouldn't a SOCOM styled barrel work good? As they are made for extended periods of full auto? |

This is a pic thread, not a debate over the need of firearms. No more BS in here please. |

Back then, an LE or .gov/mil agency could put in an order for, say, fifty 602's and specify that they be built with a forward assist. And Colt would fulfill the contract by building up rifles to that spec, and designate them as 602's, and ship them in boxes labeling them as 602's ... and since Colt came up with the numbering system in the first place, I figure whatever Colt calls them is what they are. As long as that's the way they left the Hartford factory. |

Originally Posted By EagleArmsHBAR: No, actually the flash hider is 602/early 603/XM16E1 spec. I know a XM16E1s and some early M16A1s came with the three prong flash hider, so it wasn't only a 602 variety. Calling that rifle a 602 just because of the flash hider is like calling it a 601 because it has a rotating bolt. Now back to the pictures.

The Pentagon wanted the three prong replaced since it got caught on brush, branches and jungle foliage. so some Early M16A1 still had it, but by 68-69 all A1's had the "Birdcage" flash hider.

Shouldn't that be firing from an open bolt? |
