I think I will try a re-weld on this before buying the 80% upper.

You hip to this site? Lots of SAR-80 build tips. http://ar180s.com/

I guess basically it's an AR-18. I remember reading about these many years ago when I was a gun nerd reading Janes Infantry Weapons.

cool build project that you have going on there.

Should be about 45 more days and I will have an 80% upper and new barrel.
Last night I decided to get some more TIG practice and try rewelding the cut upper. It*s actually going really well despite how rough it looks.
Not sure if I will get this going or if I will use the 80%. Good practice regardless. The only way to get better at welding is by doing more welding.

Well seeing how those receivers got hammered with a torch pretty good, the welding job so far looks great.
Re: Singapore’s SAR-80, Sterling Assault Rifle
Would love to see an update if you have one! I saw people struggle with finding the barrel and receiver for these kits.
