Looking for complete AR upper..That is NJ legal need some help...

 

You can order directly from a few places that make NJ compliant uppers

 

StagArms is one of them.

 

www.stagarms.com

 

 

I ordered one from Stag last week and got it after 8 days , NJ compliant.

Their lead time is 1-2 weeks as oer,their website but they shipped it out faster.

what are you looking for in your upper?

plenty of places to go

 

i bought a stag 3h+ few thousand rounds and no failures. I recommend them.

 

Next upper I'm getting is a BCM 14.5 pinned to 16.

You can get a BCM or Daniel Defense upper for about the same price as the Stag and get a much higher quality peice of kit. Any extra you spend will be well worth it in the long run.

 

Check Ranier Arms for a good selection of quality uppers as well.

I think a little more information is required on your part. What is your primary purpose for the upper? Target Shooting, Run and Gun game, SHTF/Home Security, etc! From there we can help you layout the type of upper you would be happy with. Then we worry about NJ neutering it. (No bayonet lug, Compensator pinned or no compensator).

High Exposure -- do BCM and Daniel Defense sell NJ compliant uppers. I had looked a while back and didn't see that offered, but maybe I missed it. I know Spike's does, but they have a ridiculous wait time.

You can also make an upper NJ compliant by having the retailer ship it to an FFL who then does the work to make NJ compliant (remove bayonet lug and/or pin/weld muzzle brake) and then get it from the FFL.

 

PK90 is one such FFL who can do the compliance work for you.

 

You don't have to limit your search to only uppers that are NJ compliant straight from the retailer.

What about a Delton upper

 

sure, for a plinkster or toy. Why not

Good morning, could you elaborate? I'm new to tactical rifles and also in the process of getting my FID and handgun permit, I was looking at a new frontier lower and delton upper 223 AR15. Take it easy on me :-). Thanks

You ever own a delton upper? I ask because most of what I've seen on people that actually own them say they're pretty well made. There are guys that say they've run them pretty hard with no problems. I'm just wondering if you have any first hand experience with them.

Probably not . Just a snob. I drive a Lexus but don't turn my nose up at people. Just sayin.

 

I also have a Hyundai and a Toyota. But work just as well just one had a little more style and resale value. Think of it that waym I have a Delton a Daniel Defense, Bushmaster and Olympic and have run all of them through courses with no problem.

Their CC on their products is lacking. Look, you want a Del-Ton? Then get one. You want an AR, then buy a quality brand. You'll see the difference immediatly and notice the difference on the range.

You never answered my question though...have you ever owned one? Like I said I've never seen a negative review from someone that actually owns one.

my co-workers do. There is a big difference between a Spikes (which is what i have) and a Del-ton. Now, i've heard they have made leaps and bounds in regards to finish and build quality and the rifles my friends own are older versions so I can't speak for the new stuff. But still, for the amount of money we are talking about a quality rifle isn't that much more expensive.

 

Remember, you get what you pay for.

I know this ray but I think from most of what I've read they make a pretty good AR at a certain price point. Not everyone has tons of money to spend on an AR. I own a BCM btw.

exactly, it's a decent AR and perfect for plinking or a range toy. BUT, if your going to do anything serious with one then a BCM (like yours) would be perfect.

Buy any upper you want online, along with a NJ legal muzzle brake (aka one that is not a flash hider). If you don't have all the parts to complete a full lower, you can legally have the upper with the threaded barrel in the same place. If you do, have it shipped to a friends house who doesn't have a complete lower. Some say this is being paranoid, but I say it is playing it safe and legal.

 

Find your nearest gunsmith that will pin the brake to your upper's barrel. Take it there, get it done, bring it home and marry to your lower. All done.
