I'd like to buy an upper with the following specs:

- 11.5/12.5 SBR upper
- piston system (for reliability)

Is there someone out there building uppers with these specs besides LWRC and POF? (those are out of my range)

To go a step further, is there someone making uppers with the exact specs, but for 6.8SPC?

PWS Diablo in 556, and I believe I read they were working on 6.8.

LMT makes one in 12". not 6.8 though.

Addax tactical might have what you are looking for. If they don't have it already, I am pretty sure they could help you get it.

You should really go check out 68forums.com. They are one of the site sponsors and frequent there quite a bit. Especially under the "industry partners" forum.

You could get this Addax 14.5" cut down if that helps I read on another board that Addax will build a 12.5" on request. Same with Wilson Combat.

Last I checked with PWS, they are not making the 6.8 anymore because of the lack of interest.  FYI.

What about going with a BCM or CMMG 11.5" upper and throwing a CMMG-piston kit on there?  Would that get you where you want to be?

That's actually pretty much what I want to do. I just don't have the tools or know-how to install/remove the FSB/Piston system

I don't think BCM makes a 6.8. You could cut down and add a piston kit to a CMMG though.
