I been wanting a 5.45mm upper for a while to circumvent the ammo prices.
I had wnated one badly enough I ha dalready bought 2 cases (1080 each)
So I finally picked one up used (at a new price, sigh)
The guy threw in 2 Mags and had the original box.
Unit was in decent shape.
As whole i tdoesnt have the quality feel that say a SR556C upper or a Sig516 upper would have but I didnt expect that.
Am just happy to have gotten a melonited piston upper for 5.45
I wanted specifically piston since the surplus ammo is so dirty.
The Adams arms BCG looked real nice obviously had a feature to reduce/eliminate carrier tilt (check the pics).
Something else I thought was interesting was that the Bolt was spring loaded.
As the pics show the pisoitn assembly comes out real easy, easier than on any other piston guns I own.
I will have to add a rail to it and get rid of the handguards.
This is because I want to use this as a cheaper trainer.
I put on a set of Magpul flip ups I had lying around and yes I am well aware that the plastic on the front one may melt.
But i needed <something> on there for now.
I may yet get some metal sights for it.
And now for the gun porn:
