| PK Firearms has a Bushmaster Upper (this is just the upper w/ forward assist and port cover, no barrel or anything else). It has M4 Feed Ramps. Although I usually try and stay away from Bushmaster parts, I think most upper receivers are made to the same specs by the same folks. Would this be a good idea for my build. I am building with high quality barrels and such, but if I get this I can order everything from PK. Is it a godd idea or an unsafe risk/bet? Thanks. |

I have used tons of Bushmaster parts, and they work great. Why would you avoid Bushmaster? During the ban and shortly thereafter, they had some issues with uppers/lowers being purple-looking, haha. Other than that, they have a good rep, and they sell good parts.
I would just get this one, though. http://www.jsesurplus.com/flattopupperm4feedramps.aspx Cheaper, has the ramps you need, and same finish as the Bushmaster (anodized, not Teflon). I have three of them - high quality uppers. |
| I picked one of those up a few months ago for a 5.56 build for my wife's new AR. Finish matched an extra Stag lower I had. BCM barrel, LaRue rail, and Rock River BCG completed the build. Everything works great together. She has put about 500-600 rounds through it w/o issue. I also have a complete Bushmaster M4gery AR that is a few years old and has been my favorite AR since I bought it. BCM has some M4 uppers here for a good price too. |
