JSE Has 5 Retro Uppers Left in Stock

[calicojack]

I just ordered one with a three prong flash hider and green furniture. Old school triangle charging handle. It has a 1 in 7 twist, so while it looks like a model 601 upper, it does not have the original 1 in 14 twist nor the chrome non-serrated BCG. Still not a bad deal at $619 + $10 SH. When I retire and move out of state I will build a lower to match - in the mean time I have a pre-ban lower for it.

One could probably Cerakote the upper and lower to match the old-school gray finish.

[EDIT] Here's a concise guide to the pre-A1 M16 models.
