Alrighty, so you’ve decided to purchase a sub $250 dollar upper. Maybe you’re tight on cash. Maybe you just want a beater rifle. Maybe you love having buyers remorse, and keep telling yourself you can get high quality products for super cheap.
It’s a cheap upper and it feels like it. But It runs. Perfect 3 o clock ejection with 223 brass. I maybe have 300 rounds on it. Keep in mind this is a 10.5 5.56, you’re already pushing the boundaries of reliability and pleasant shooting.
Description says the barrel is chrome moly vanadium but can’t find that written on the barrel anywhere. The barrel is dimpled for the gas block though! That was a pleasant surprise.
Handguard feels like junk to me, and charging would make this ear piercing ringing noise. Not sure how that is happening but I Replaced the handguard with a Midwest and the ringing went away. The barrel nut is some janky thing that your typical armorers wrench won’t fit.
Would I buy it again? Nope. I’d spend a bit more money and get higher quality parts. I like to build though, so my take on it is: Take the 250 from this and get a decent barrel and upper receiver like aero precision, ballistic advantage or rosco.
