FARTHAMMER Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 So I'm making a list of parts for my build and starting with recievers I am still un sure. My original plan was mega but I just saw the price for the Tactical machining ones, how is the fit and finish on these? Is there any play between the upper and lower? Any others I should be looking at? And build or buy the upper complete? Sorry if I sound flumoxed but I dont like to do things twice.

skeeter Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I have the TM 10 lower and have had no complaints, its a real nice lower for a fair price. I have a thread around here somewhere with some pics of my build. I used the DPMS stripped upper and it fits and looks great with the TM10, buy and build with confidence using the TM10 lower. <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikedaddyH Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Built two rifles from TM lowers. <thumbsup> DPMS upper on one and SAA on the other. Very good fit and finish on both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blwn99x Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 I just spoke with TM about their uppers being out of stock, they said it would be a few months before they will be available but that Brownells just ordered 50 upper receivers 2 weeks ago, so we will see. I am waiting for a TM 308 upper to match my lower, that would be swell...BOOM...PING! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blwn99x Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 thanks for the info, unfortunately i have already finished my rifle last month. i used the dpms stripped upper and it looks great. i do plan on getting a tm upper sometime in the future for a matched set. for now i still need to zero my rifle more precisely.
