My new AR upper & b/c assembly arrived

[GRoPA]

Woo hoo..........It just came today. Here are some pics of it on my rifle lower:











Did you notice no "T" handle? Yep....it is side charging. I thought it would be a pretty neat twist.

Now that is cool! I've never seen a side charging AR upper...What make is it?

[Shawn.L]

cool.
Is that the upper your gonna put on a poofa lower?
Is that side charging on the left? It always was akward to work the bolt on the AK on the right.

always with the weird shit!

lol lookin good

[arrrrgh15]

Damn! That's cool!.

I had considered building an AR upper with no gas system to build a PA legal AR-15 varmint rifle. I abandoned the idea because it would be a pain to eject and reload with the conventional charging handle. That upper would solve that problem I think.

Don't look now, but someone stole your barrel!

Here is the link. As far as I know they are the only ones making them......hence, they priced accordingly. Although it's not terribly bad prices considering the b/c assembly ($100-$125) come with it.

Fulton Armory makes one (no relation)



there are one or 2 other companies making them but i cant think of there names off hand

I didnt even know ameetec was making them.

Things have changed since the owner was convicted of mail fraud (but thats a long story)


I do like the ameetec looks compared to the Fulton Armory one

There was someone at the i think Aug or Sept group shoot with a 9mm SBR AR side cocker

dont remember his name though
