Been eyeing these Wolf T91 uppers for several months. Now that the holidays are over, I am thinking about getting one of these.

Cold hammer forged barrel
Nitride barrel finish
Short stroke piston system (very well designed imo)
Proven use by Taiwan
Plus proven in the desert by a few ME countries and in the jungle environment

Runs about $450 new online.

Any reason not to get one of these for something different?

Few hundred, no malfs. Not even the first mag malfs some people report breaking it in. It even had no issues with the nasty euro xm193 that had given some other guns issues.

I got one of the first of the 16 inch ones that went one sale(I think I was the first to post pics here and on reddit that wasn't given a presale copy). Mine hasn't been run that hard but overall I've been impressed with it. I say go nuts on the 12 inch one if you want one. Next for mine is a 80% a1 lower engraved with the t91 markings that centurion arms did that a sot I know is going to finish and transfer back to me. I have the t91 stock/buffer tube, carry handle sight, and pistol grip to make it into a clone. Not sure if I'm going to swap the front sight to the more correct one or not.

That's awesome. I remember the first batch of uppers guys had malfunctions until they got their upper broken in.

Nice. Everyone that owns one really seems to like it. Not sure if I have heard of any negative reviews or major complaints. Seems very solid, especially for the current price.

Yeah. The gas system isn't adjustable. Michael Bell's YT channel has a video where he looked at running it with a suppressor. Good video.

Battlefield Vegas had a handguard fail pretty quick from memory and it was before t91tactical was selling spares(and rails). Most of the negative stuff was early on with the things coming in different options(first ones didn't have the extra sight post for standard ar rear sights, the flash hider got changed, etc). I do seem to remember a few that had issues otherwise but it seemed to be a small number.

Most of what I've seen has been positive as well.

Has BFLV stated any updates of their T91 uppers since?

Really would be cool if some companies like MI or RS Regulate would come out with a MLOK rail. I know some guys like the clone look. Not sure that is a priority for me.

Yea this, I don't have any experience with the rails but they have an mlok rail. At one point they had a dickmod(key mod) as well. Can't remember if they had a normal rail as well or not.

I give them credit for importing all of the extra stuff that wolf should have had available.

Thanks Camel. I remember seeing that someone was coming out with a MLOK rail.

That one from T91 Tactical doesn't look too bad. But I think there could be better if one of the domestic rail companies got involved. Some of those shops did rails for the Galil ACE rifles. These T91 uppers can't be too far off in popularity.

I like mine but first shot failed to cycle and it's a little front heavy. Seems decently made though.

Can you remove the front sight and still run just fine?

I’d like to put a prism or acog on and get rid of that ugly front site.

Do you (or anyone else for that matter) have a weight for the upper. Dealers don't have the weight listed in the item description. Just curious.

For those who own these, what rear sight works well with the front sight.

I know you can get one of the $80 factory sights;

Wondering what else works well.

Any ar-15 rear sight will work. The early uppers needed either a shorter or longer one but the newer uppers come with both if I'm not mistaken. I used a wilson rear sight I had laying around until I got a carry handle from t91 tactical and was able to get it to zero without issue.

Thanks, if I was stuck with the factory rear sight, add $80 to the cost vs. I likely have a spare around from another project, tempted to order one.

Think they all come with the taller sight post now(looked, the one for ar15 rear sights is taller). You should be able to zero with the stock one though. If you later decide you want to use a t91 rear sight and you don't have the shorter post t91 tactical sells them for 5 bucks.

Not a single issue from mine with a few hundred through.



The first one I received had an out-of-spec upper; it wouldn't fit on any of my lowers. Contacted Wolf, was given a shipping label, and they shipped me out a replacement the day received mine.

Any standard AR rear sight should work. The A1.5 works great with mine. No problem zeroing at 50m. It matches the aesthetics of the upper, too, IMO.

The front sight base can be removed from the gas-block by punching-out a roll pin.
