that is a shame
I made a low offer for it and he turned it down. I figured I could use it as a guide when I'm reaming the buffer tube hole in 80% lowers, so I'm not scratching up some nice upper. |

i've run across two or three like that at gun shows. i usually get them real cheap. they become fun little .22 uppers. put them on a mill and get it flat, then use a scope mount and drill and tap. cheap little plinker upper.

Somebody bought it??? Damn!!!
I've been looking for a cheap upper to build one of these - 
I have the stick of 1" aluminum to TIG weld to the top...I just can't talk myself into chopping up a perfectly good upper... ...But I'll happily rescue someone else's f*ckup...

That's also how the high power rifle crowd used to build match rifle uppers "back in the day". The flat-top upper put an end to all that of course.

i see nothing too wrong wth it except he didnt finish it. ie it does not have a weaver rail bolted to it. i can did one out of my parts pin that has a carry handle cut off and a weaver rail bolted on. remember that at one time that was cutting edge and the only way to have that.
