MikedaddyH Posted September 6, 2012 Report Posted September 6, 2012 Looked at one of their uppers today and it is a very good design.It does not reciprecaite and has a folding handle. Has a sleeve on the left side which holds the charging handle in position. The rear end of the upper receiver has a hinged metal door that holds the gas in. The key to their system is a half inch slot milled into the bolt carrier.The stripped U R is going for $349 ,and $425 with ASA modified bolt carrier. Also the forward assist has been deleted.Im going to put one of these on my next AR15 build ! <thumbsup>
Robocop1051 Posted September 7, 2012 Report Posted September 7, 2012 I'm impressed with the non-reciprocating handle, but I would have liked something more ambidextrous oriented. Sorta like this...Big review HERE
98Z5V Posted September 9, 2012 Report Posted September 9, 2012 Im going to put one of these on my next AR15 build ! <thumbsup>Mike, did you know that these guys are right in Scottsdale? Locals, man. ;D <thumbsup>
MikedaddyH Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Posted September 9, 2012 Yeah about a 5-wood or a 3-iron south of Dillions. Was there on Thursday.
98Z5V Posted September 9, 2012 Report Posted September 9, 2012 Was there on Thursday.Damn. You're screwed now... <laughs>
MikedaddyH Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Posted September 9, 2012 WHY ???I get small parts from them every few months. I go to Dillions every month, they offen have the little parts that everyone else is out of.
98Z5V Posted September 9, 2012 Report Posted September 9, 2012 Once you visit in person, there's no recovery... <lmao> You already stated it, brother - back there every couple months; they're your source for small parts, etc. They're your pusher, now... <laughs> <thumbsup>I'm afraid to go up there, myself. I have enough pushers as it is - Roger @ Battlearms knows this... :o <lmao>I did make another order through ASA last night, though.
Jgun Posted September 9, 2012 Report Posted September 9, 2012 Could you clarify this for me? Am I understanding you correctly that this non reciprocating upper receiver is being offered by American Spirit Arms? I see that you're referring to it for use on an AR 15 platform, is that correct? I recall that they build complete .308 guns with the non reciprocating side charger, do you know if they intend to offer large platform upper receivers and bolt carriers as well?

Non reciprocating AR15 uppers and complete AR15 guns . I fondeled one which had a pricetag of $1750. The stripped upper is $349 and one with a moddified bolt carrier is $425.I have not seen one of there 308 guns , but that does not mean they dont make them.I dont know anything about what they have in the works. Just a customer.

Who's the crackhead here...At lease I can step away from the counter. <laughs>I have a much harder time when I go to Coleman-Tyler. Thats is where I feel like a parts junkie. They have everthing I need, I only go there with cash in hand plastic is "Verbotten".
