Cheapest Possible AR15 Complete Upper?

[HK Dave]

Hey guys... was looking at my extra complete lowers that I have left over from various builds... and was thinking of just finishing one off KISS that I can torture test and basically drag around and beat the crap out of.

Anyone know who sells the cheapest of cheap complete upper that will function properly?

(Don't need a charging handle if that'll help, have half a dozen laying around)

Anything cheap you "beat up and drag around" won't be around for to long buddy.

Check these guys out, they are slow to ship, but offer some great deals, they have several options for complete uppers at $329.95

Also TDS guns was having an upper sale, I believe they had their basic uppers at $299. this was at their Bonita location so you may want to contact them and ask if they still have the sale going on.

Thanks Arkangel.

I looked at PSA earlier, but that price is without a BCG. Hmm I think I'll have to wait for something to pop up in classifieds.

Cheap would be looking for ads for parts you want and buy them. I built a complete AR for $290 from buying stuff on here and my old stuff laying around. Thats my beater gun and its actually work better then a lot of AR i see at the range. Im happy with it. If your willing to wait, you can find it really cheap.

actually, heres the picture of it. Not bad for a cheap build:



then added a longer handguard:

Check out Midway. They have DPMS complete uppers in the $370-385 range. Nothing fancy, but I have one of the bull-barrel 16" sporters that I have used hard for a couple of years, and it is still going strong. JSE Surplus also runs deals for their store brand uppers that I have seen go as low as $350 complete. Poke around, and you will find something eventually.

Thats great! Yah I'm thinking I might just piece it together little by little... now i'm wishing i didn't give away so many of the little parts i had laying around.

I'll take a look, thanks!

LOL Nice JSE has complete uppers for $355.. too bad they're out of stock.

Piecing it together is the cheapest and you can get a better quality upper. I'd start with a "blemished" BCM upper and the start looking for parts.

wow i just sold a stag with a daniel defense rail omega 7, front and rear sights complete upper with bcg and ch for $400..... I shouldve asked for more....

anyways.... good luck with your build....

[cabinetguy]

Picked up one of those. If you have a spare BCG laying around it's pretty cheap.

[Don29palms]

Can't get much cheaper than that.
