Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - does anyone make a carbonfiber upper, complete?
Posted: 5/12/2004 1:41:21 PM EDT
I have read several good write ups on carbon fiber uppers, and I want one. Does anyone make one readily available? If not I may have to buy a BM superlight barrel, carbon fiber upper reciever, and the YHM lightweight ff handguard with rails, and have someone put it together for me.

Hesse/Vulcan makes kevlar/polymer uppers.  However, considering their build quality, I would get their receiver stripped and get the parts from elsewhere.  So far, reparts indicate the kevlar receivers themselves are strong and lightweight.  Hesse/Vulcan employees are less than competent in their ability to build a rifle and the parts they buy are very far from being acceptable.
