    Are these decent prices? Anyone know of better quality for same or cheaper that is already built. My time is at a premium these days so I dont have time to build an upper myself.

    Thanks.

    Check out Radical Firearms. There's a thread on this site, search. Very nice product at a great price point and no malfunctions so far. I will say to always upgrade an upper with a Yankee Hill hand guard when possible. Whomever you go with, get the YHM option! Just my opinion, I know there are many other quality manufactures. They are very light and of the utmost quality. I see that the Runner Runner Guns link also has the YHM hand guard.

    Engage and Precision Firearms are both IP's here that carry quality, high end products that come very highly recommended by many members. I have never bought any pistol uppers for either, however. Good luck on your search!

    The one you listed with the Troy rail for less than $500 is a very good deal. You would probably spend twice as much to do better.

    I have a 8" 300 blackout upper from them and for the price i couldn't be happier. Good customer service also.

    I bought a 10.5" yhm upper for a pistol build from radical firearms and will review it once it's completed. Know a couple of guys that purchased from them and have gotten good reviews.
    Runner runner looks like they have great prices but very little out there on them that I could find.
    Ar15.com has a couple of threads about them. Seem respectable...I like all the options you can choose from.

    I have a 7.5" 223 upper from radical firearms and love it! I paired it with a psa bcg and kak flash can. Only thing I may change is a slightly longer rail to cover some more of the flash can.
