I bought one of the $125 ones. Any leads on a cheap but serviceable BCG?

Got one. Thanks.
Teratos: Which one did you swing for - the Primary Arms or the Radical Firearms website? Thanks!
Cheap uppers = concerns on quality. Just ask Chadwin what he has seen on these bargain uppers.
I would suspect the experts would suggest this one is easily worth the extra $20. Phosphate finish, Carpenter 158 steel bolt, chrome lined, etc.

50 yards front supported.

What do you think of the brake that came on it?
On the Radical site in their clearance section they have a barreled upper in 5.56 with the same handguard. It doesn’t have the zero impulse brake and it is a SOCOM profile barrel. They advertise all HBAR/SOCOM/medium contour barrels as “heavy barrel”. Specific language about MD on their FAQ page. $125
Damn, that sucks. I dont recall mine looking like that. Ill have to investigate.Follow up on these uppers.
Ordered 4 of them.
Nothing for a month. Sent a WTF email. Radical customer support responded same day and they shipped that day.
Received them and looked them over, they are all crap. All of them have dings here and there either on the handgaurd or barrel. A couple of them look like they were grabbed with wrench. At least two of them have rust on the barrel and one of those has a dozen + spots of rust. And this is just on the last couple inches of barrel visible. I'm sure there is a lot more to complain about if I spent more than 10 seconds each looking them over.
