Hey guys,
I've got this lower-shaped aluminum paperweight from 5D Tactical and I was planning to pick up one of their complete uppers to ensure a good mating experience but it's been 10 months and they're just never in stock. SO, I got wondering - somebody here has built one of these successfully I bet!
The 5d site says any DPMS gen1 compatible upper will work but I've heard that one before - anyone have a suggestion for a likely good match? I'm mainly looking at pre-built with headspace already worked out as I'm not at that level yet. Probably 18"-20" barrel length is what I'm thinking. Would appreciate any suggestions.
Will probably post a separate thread later for a similar AR-9 situation I'm in with a 5D lower, but let's keep this one pointed at the .308 I think.
Thanks!
