    If only you could get SIG 556s here. The new xi can have an ak lower or an AR lower, accepting 5.56/300/or 7.62x39 with right barrel bolts and mags. Probably need to bring your own in.

    Looking at buying a bare upper receiver to build a precision/long range upper. From what I can read there is no advantage of using a heavier/more rigid upper? they seems twice the price so if I can save $100US plus, yippee.

    So maybe just a Bravo company or spikes upper?

    There are heaps of guys down there who can fit an AR barrel. No need to head space it. Ask on sport shooter forum.
