I need some advice on building two AR's uppers by parting out what I have already. Right now I have a DPMS Sportical 5.56 and I am looking to build a 6.8 SPC also. The DPMS has the sport upper without the forward assist or dust cover. I want to use this upper receiver as the basis for the 6.8. I want to use the 5.56 barrel on a standard A2 or M4 type receiver. I will use my existing lower for both, or until I can afford another lower.
The new 6.8 upper will be used as a deer rifle and the new 5.56 upper will be more of a SHTF/target rifle.
I know I will need another receiver, a 6.8 barrel, and the bolt carrier group. Anything else?
My other question is does this sound like more trouble than it is worth?
