| Sabre AR-15 Rifles I am looking into the "Precision Marksman" upper receiver. Does anyone have any experience with these? Secondly... and more (possibly) questionable... is the Sabre upper receiver compatible with ANY AR lower?

| Should be. What "exactly" are you wanting? SS barrel? 16", 20"? I mean, a 16" SS barreled upper mixed with a RRA two stage trigger and a good optic is a very capable rifle. At what range are you looking to reach out to?

| Oh, 6.5. Yeah, as far as I know the only problem you should ever have is when dealing with some of the Colt stuff.

I have a PWA lower receiver... and putting this "Precision Marksman" upper receiver would "cure what ails me" ... and in addition, give me an optic I can put on top of my M-14 when I'd like... Did you ever finish any of the two lower receivers you acquired?

| Not yet. I've put DPMS lower parts kits in both of them. One has a MIAD grip, the other has a Hogue grip. I'll probably order 2 Armalite 6 position stocks. At $56 each you can't beat that considering they come with mil spec tubes.

I'm keeping my "carbine" 5.56 upper and purchasing that 6.5 Grendel Precision Marksman upper... giving myself options.

| I don't know for sure. I'm really really interested in building up a 7.62x39 AR, especially since C-Products is going to start shipping 30 round mags within the next month.
