destro23 0 Posted December 18, 2012 Hey guys i've had email alerts at AIM, Joebobs, and a few other places.. and for past month haven't been able to find any complete upper in stock. Can anyone point me in the right direction? i'm looking in the 500-700 range with/ rails, as thats something that im going to spend money on anyway. But doesn't need to have metal rails, i can throw on that magpul replacement, i think they look decent anyway. BCM has 900 ones in stock that also need BCG(Bolt Carrier Group) I finally built my lower(wow was it easy!) Spikes punisher with Giselle<sp?> SSAE trigger.

mcbethr 42 Posted December 18, 2012 PK90 has also been sick with the flu, so it may take him a few days to respond. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HavocMan 13 Posted December 18, 2012 The BCM stuff is $900 for a reason. You get what you pay for. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BOOMSTICK 6 Posted December 18, 2012 The BCM stuff is $900 for a reason. You get what you pay for. Uppers with no BCG. At least as of a couple days ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
destro23 0 Posted December 18, 2012 RRA a few months backordered JSE - completely sold out of uppers BCM has about six 16" Midlength uppers (doubt the 14.5" are jersey legal and only a 2 of those) Palmetto actually has some uppers now looking at them now... cheaperthendirt has 3 uppers... a ruger piston, an 18", and a S&W one.. for those prices i'd rather the BCM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HavocMan 13 Posted December 18, 2012 Uppers with no BCG. At least as of a couple days ago. BCM never includes a BCG with their uppers. They never have. AR's are not all the same and you get what you pay for from BCM. They are one of the very few outfits that follow the spec for the AR. Most other makers cut corners during the manufacturing process. Again, you get what you pay for. If you find a complete upper for, say, $500 including the BCG, you have to ask yourself what the differences are between that upper and one that sells for $900 w/o the BCG. The answer is that folks like BCM adhere to a standard and the cheap gun builders do not. Then ask yourself what your life is worth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BOOMSTICK 6 Posted December 18, 2012 BCM never includes a BCG with their uppers. They never have. I didnt know that. I was doing a mock purchase with them the other night and there was an option for the BCG that was greyed out. The side note states that when there are no BCG's available, that it's greyed out and will say "no bcg". So I assumed that they normally came with one. Good to know.

That way you're not forced to buy a component that you may already have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
destro23 0 Posted December 18, 2012 BCM has about six 16" Midlength uppers (doubt the 14.5" are jersey legal and only a 2 of those) update since this last post...

bbk 188 Posted December 19, 2012 Wow, even Riflegear is completely out. I'm starting to buy the notion that there is a bit of a panic... ETA: Riflegear doesn't have uppers, but they do have some complete rifles in stock: http://www.riflegear.com/c-81-rifles.aspx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMWR12 35 Posted December 19, 2012 PK90 had at least 4 or 5 uppers that I assume are NJ compliant when I was there on Friday. I would check his place out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
