Identify this AR-15 upper

[Onikudaki]

Can anyone identify the brand or provide any info on this upper?

Looks to be a ~10.5" barrel or full 16" underneath with a fake suppressor perm attached.

Thanks!

gunshow special. ive seen some of them at guns shows. made with generic parts. they usually run about 400 complete

Its a frankenupper, could be great quality or need work. You never know till you run it. Best thing about ARs is as long as the parts used are good quality, the rifle can be a great shooter. Any AR can be just as good as another.

I love it when guys say things like BCM upper and YHM barrel or something like that...its NOT a BCM upper, its parts bought from BCM that you assembled.

So what is a fair price to sell this quick on here?

Recieved it from a friend and have no interest in it.

$300, assembling it from parts would cost about $400, so it will sell fast for $300.

upper = $90ish
Barrel = $150ish
fake can = $50ish
Quad rail = $75ish
Gas block /gas tube = $40ish

BCG= $100ish

go to Buds gunshop .com and look as the parts individually. That quad rail isnt a Seekins...I know it looks like one, but its not. It looks like a older YHM or MI or some unknown maker. Dont think its a $250 quad rail. The BCG needs to have certain marking on it to be worth more then $100 used.

wait does it come with BCG that is the internals bolt carrier?

[Onikudaki]

no i received it from him without BCG or charging handle. it has not been used/shot/etc.

$300 as is without paperwork on the quad rail. Even if it looks like a high end one, that doesnt mean its NOT a clone of a high end one bought off E-bay.

I can see the upper has a forge mark, so its a quality upper, so its not a made-in-chiina junk one. get a close up of the forge mark and look it up. It should be about $90-$120.

The barrel can be standard or high end depending on markings... Since its hidden you have to say its a standard weapon grade worth about $120-$190

The gas block and gas tube are also hidden so they could be cheap at $20 and $15 or high end @ $90 and $20

The fake can has markings, I think it should say something like USN Cage code blah blah blah simulating a real Navy can. I have seen them sell for $40 to $90

The barrel/gas system and who assembled it dictate the cost of an upper. If you dont get that barrel/gas system right, it will take a lot of work to get it running right.... unknown assembled uppers go for $250 to $400.

Same with AKs in my book... guys asking $1200 for their home assembled AKs because a Russian or Bulgarian one goes for that much are kidding themselves. Sure if its a "collectable" that will never get shot who is going to know it's a jam-o-matic AK47...
