nitrobass24 Posted August 10, 2022 Report Share Posted August 10, 2022 Hey guys just found this community after hours of googling and thought I would join up and learn from some folks that have been down this road. I have built many AR-15s, but this is my first foray into the AR10 space and I am finding it a bit difficult to navigate. 🙂 I bought a Larue 7.62 Stripped Lower about a year ago and never got around to buying their Ultimate Upper Kit. Unfortunately this was a massive mistake as they no longer offer it. They also are not selling a matched Upper Receiver at the moment either. I called Larue and they suggested that I just buy a complete upper from KAC, but thats a pretty expensive option that exceeds what I am willing to do. My initial quest is really on finding an Upper Receiver that will work well with the Larue Lower. I've found the Mega Maten and v-seven arms, that look like they would work, but I've not found anyone that has this combo that can confirm compatibility. Any direction you can provide would be appreciated!

shooterrex Posted August 10, 2022 Report Share Posted August 10, 2022 If LaRue recommends a KAK upper they sell those stripped. https://www.kakindustry.com/lr-308-parts/308-upper-parts/308-kak-stripped-upper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitrobass24 Posted August 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2022 Knights Arm Co (KAC) is what they suggested. KAK Industries is different and not compatible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgecrusher Posted August 10, 2022 Report Share Posted August 10, 2022 I have a LaRue and a MaTen. I can’t get to it today, going to bed for midnight shift. I will get to it tomorrow for you and report back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save the LaRue lower. Put it away, keep it. The Ultimate Upper Kits will come back, and the matched uppers will come back - just not soon, with how crazy everything is. Build something else. I'd suggest using the Aero M5 receivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
