AR Stoner COMPLETE upper $169!!! Now OOS

[BangBang]

$369 when I opened the link

They are back up to regular price now. The $169 price didn’t last long. They sold FAST at that price.

Well I guess they are thinking optics ready carbine kinda thing. If you look at the low profile gas block you can see two pins. So if you want a A2 front sight post it's already pinned for that. A A2 sight post, and hand guard cap would be all you need for a A2 set up or you could just swap out the low profile gas block for a picatinny type gas block. That way you can mount a flip up sight or a low mount fixed sight. For such a low initial cost that would be a very small investment for sight mounting.

Looks like it’s already got the handguard cap, but I can’t tell if that gas block is pinned or just a clamp-on type.

Yeah, that might be okay to put together a 'loaner' carbine to let other people shoot, but I wouldnt use that for a primary home defense weapon.
You really do get what you pay for.

Mine are scheduled for delivery on the 7th. Will let you know when they arrive. Can't beat $2 S/H each either.

It is not pinned. Just set screws. I bought one of these on black Friday. I'm debating what to do with it as far as optics/sights go.

Long term investments in parts/pieces!

Thanks for that info. I have used the reasonably priced BTE Rail Height gas blocks (non-adjustable) before and that is what I plan to use on a few of these uppers. JSE Surplus has the BTE closeout priced at only $17.50 each (discontinued for new Gen 3 version, I assume), which should be about the same value as the low profile gas block being removed.

Mine, along with the BTE gas blocks, should arrive tomorrow. Anxious to see what we get for $170.

I haven’t shot this one yet so I can’t say. I bought one of these Stoner uppers quite a few years ago. It’s pinned to the lower I have a slide fire stock on. I don’t know a round count but I would guess around 3000 rounds.. The majority of those have been full auto mag dump type of rounds. No complaints. It hasn’t skipped a beat.
