[b] Not a dumb question at all. You'll be able to use any of the bolts you mentioned in that upper. Most guys here are going to tell you since its a Colt ,buy the Colt bolt. Good Luck [/b]

Slidestop is right. Any properly made bolt and carrier will work. On the other hand, if you're going to use this upper on a Colt lower, you might want to use Colt bolt/carrier parts just to keep it "pure"[:D]

If you're putting the upper on another brand lower, don't guess it much matters,  but you're going to need adapter pieces from Bushmaster to match up the front hole in the SP1 upper with your lower.
