WTB AR-15 complete or partial upper


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hello everyone! I've recently been looking into wanting to build my first AR and decided to post on here before ordering something online. 

I'm wanting a complete AR upper in either 556 or 300 black out. I probably prefer 556. I'm wanting a barrel length of either 11.5 (to build a pistol) or 16 inch without carry rail and has a low profile gas block.

Thanks for looking!

This is an automatic reply meant to protect you as a buyer and a seller on TGO.

  • Use the Buyer/Seller Feedback feature to research who you are dealing with.   Please come back and leave feedback for each other after the transaction is complete.  Your experience will help others.
     
  • Never agree to use an electronic form of payment to buy or sell a gun!  None of the electronic payment services will protect you against fraud in a firearms transaction.  They all have terms of service FORBIDDING the use of their services to buy/sell guns.  DON'T DO IT.
     
  • Be very wary of anyone who insists on brokering a deal in private or outside of TGO.  Scammers almost always prefer to operate out of the public eye.

For what it’s worth. The difference in lowers is very VERY minimal. Cheap out on the lower receiver, put good quality parts in it, and spend decent money on an upper. That’s where the magic happens! My favorite “budget” build that is reliable, durable, and go to war-able is an Aero lower and a complete BCM upper. Lower receiver don’t really matter much. PSA has them at times for 40.00.

Agree with John on the lower.  Unless you are getting ambi controls there isn't a lot of difference between the parts.  I like the Aero M4E1 series as they have some upgrades that make assembly a bit easier with the addition of set screws rather than roll pins.  Most impactful piece you will notice on the lower is the controls and the trigger, I would go cheap on the lower with an anderson or PSA Mil-Spec and spend the money on a nice radian safety and larue MBT trigger.
