Well, as the title says. I got an EA (essential arms) stripped lower and looking around for an upper to complete it. I see a delton complete upper for $450, That would add up to around $600 with shipping, LPK and the cost of the lower. With a stock assembly, it might add another $50 or so. But still pretty cheap for an AR - still have some money for optics, mags and ammo of course.
BUT i found a CMMG piston upper for $650 brand new. I figure if i spend money on this project, might as well, get the fancier one. I would still come up with around $850 for a complete gas piston AR. Still a lot cheaper compared to other gas piston or normal AR's.
So the question is of course, which one should i get ?
BOTH is not an option because i don't like sleeping in the dog house, i'm pretty sure my puppy doesn't like to share his bed as well.
fyi: this will be my first AR if that matters
