Help finding a POF .308 upper or alternative

[Antmn88]

Hey guys I'm in a bit of a dilemma here. I have a POF .308 complete lower and I've been searching everywhere for a matching POF .308 complete upper but have had no luck. From everything I'm seeing they don't make it in a 20" barrel set up anymore. So it's looking like I'm going to have to try to find one on the second hand market, which I've had no luck. Was wondering if anyone on here was selling or know where I can find one.

I guess another route I can go is with a different manufacturer but from what I heard pof is typically proprietary so not sure if this an option. I've also heard I could do a 6.5 Creedmoor set up since the only thing I would need is a 6.5 upper/barrel and that a .308 lower would work with that set up. Any truth to that? At the end of the day these options would be last resorts as I really want the pof .308 upper configuration with a 20" barrel. I appreciate any feedback and suggestions. TIA!

I don't know about the POF but my PSA lower works with both 308 and 6.5. Incidentally, the extractor blew out while I was shooting 308 so I replaced it with a tougher one and got a dedicated 6.5 BCG so I didn't have to change it out all the time and have a backup. The 6.5 is actually built differently, with a smaller primer pin and 2 extractors but it didn't make a difference.

You could just get a different length barrel and change the barrel to the one you want, then sell the other barrel.
