All I know is the the "AR Stoner" stuff is made by Bear Creek and Midway marks the price WAY UP.

So that's a lose-lose in my book.

Color me foolish! I wonder how much money I have thrown away shopping Midway all these years.

Bear creek has 6.5 uppers on sale at $270. Free shipping. Dare I risk a hijack and ask about these- accuracy ok? And yes $499 Midway for same item!

I have an "AR Stoner" upper in 5.56.

It's junk.

It's over gassed, the chamber is rough and the BCG looks like it was milled by a 12 year old illegal alien.

With a blue sprinco spring and H1 buffer it will leave cases stuck in the chamber with part of rim missing.
