As you all know, im pretty much an AR noob.

 

Tried to piece together an upper on a budget. My goals are flip up front and rear sights, mid length, light weight.

 

What do you guys think about this set up?

 

Item Name: 16" Mid-Length Light Weight Custom Upper

Item Price: $495.00

Options:

16 Custom Upper -ML Barrel:DTI 16" 1x9 Mid-Length Light Weight Barrel

Custom Upper -BC:Standard Bolt & Carrier

16 Custom Upper -ML Handguards:Mid-Length Handguard with Heat Shields

Custom Upper -Gas Block:YHM 4 Rail Gas Block

Custom Upper -Flash Hider:Phantom Aggressive End Comp/Brake- Pinned & Welded

Custom Upper -Upper:Flat Top Upper with M4 Feed Ramps

Custom Upper -Charging Handle:Standard Charging Handle

Custom Upper -Carrying Handle:None

 

 

Picked the railed gas block, looks like a few companies make BUIS that are designed for the gas block rail and are longer so they will line up with standard rear BUIS.

 

Please someone push me in the right direction if im missing something here...

 

Not really ready to buy yet but trying to figure out what i want to go with.

JSE Surplus will assemble a varmint upper with bull barrel complete for 415. There are plenty of options but the basic one looks nice. It includes a BCG and latch handle. It will either be del ton or dpms. You won't know until you get it. You can guarantee a dpms upper if you choose slick side (no forward assist). If you plan on shooting a ton I'd get the forward assist.

 

This is using a stainless 1:8 non fluted bull barrel. You can get it threaded for a compensator but I wouldn't. I have a complete lower laying around so I may buy one of these.

Anybody that wants JSE Surplus stuff giuve me a shout!!!

Is that good or bad? I was looking at the ER Shaw setup from Model 1 sales. Any dirt there?
