There is no doubt that BCM, Daniel Defense, and Colt make top quality uppers and are well worth their cost if you plan to trust your life to the rifle.

BCM actually has a 16" hammer forged mid length on sale right now on their site for $489, which doesn't include a bolt carrier group or handguards. Finding them in stock is generally the only issue with them.

Of I may offer an alternate suggestion Mike, get either a 6.8SPC or Grendel upper for it. You can use the same magazines(Capacity is reduced by two rounds) and you end up with a much more effective round that can also be used to hunt larger game with like Deer. The 6.8 is basically a shortened 270Winchester and is three times more effective at any range than the 5.56.

Just a thought, Juuuuusssssttttt a thought.

I fully agree with Dave on the 6.8 SPC front.

I built one up, and and am very happy with it so far.
