| Greetings fellow retro junkies. I know this question has come up alot. Havn't seen it latley, and can't figure out how to word the search right. So here go's: Is there an adapter to mate the Colt SP1 large hole uppers with the GI small hole lowers? Anyone know a good place to get one? |

Yes they make adapters for large to small and vise vesrsa. I got my small upper to large lower pin at www.bravocompanyusa.com/ they have the other ones as well. |
First of all, mounting a large hole UPPER onto a small hole LOWER, does NOT require an "adapter". I keep seeing this error over and over.  The adapters are for mounting a small hole UPPER onto a big hole LOWER.If you want to mount an early upper onto a current lower you need to install a sleeve into the upper hole---and the sleeve needs to be offset in the middle to properly match up the fit of the two pieces. Fortunately, DPMS offers the correct piece for just a couple of bucks. It's a bit of a hassle to get the installation just right, but if you put it in with a coat of good quality epoxy, or Loctite, it'll stay in place forever.  |
