#1
Hi Guys thought I would let everybody know we have side charge uppers available in right eject left eject and ambi eject. Made from 7075 hard anodized comes complete with nickel boron Carrier and phosphate bolt. Can be used with 17 Remington to 50 Beowulf. Attached are pics of the right eject hunter in 6.5 Grendel.[ATTACH=CONFIG]4440[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]4441[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]4442[/ATTACH]

Did you change the ammo pattern?

Yep its our version of the A Tac pattern done with Cerekote. We like it a bit more subtle compared to the other.

I like! I've been kicking myself for not getting a side charging upper but I traded some 22LR ammo for a upper/lower that my boss had so I got what was available.
The next one I get, yeah, it's gonna have to be side charging.

And, I like that cerakote job. I've been thinking of a FDE base with some swaths of OD Green here and there. I have the same buttstock and was figuring I'd leave it black, but seeing those pics, I've decided to get them koted too.

Is it only available as a complete rifle? Can you buy just the upper?
Thx

These are so sweet looking, saw them in another thread before, just hard to swallow $400 right now. I think I am going to build my 20" on a normal upper for now, and when funds are available get one of these.

And don't forget that price is with a Nib bolt carrier and you don't need a charging handle. Saves $40 on a ok CH or $80 on a nice Charge handle like a Rainier or something and the additional cost of a Nib carrier of $100. So in reality, it's $220 for the upper.

I would have to agree with that I have two Barrels on the way and will just have to wait a nice as they look. Maybe in a couple of months if they are still around.

Where does it say the carrier is Nib? I'm not seeing it on their description of the right side charger. All I see is, "Now offered as an upper kit which includes the following: upper receiver, carrier, charging handle, gas plug, bolt and bolt release."

Am I missing something? I am pretty blind to the obvious sometimes Wink

Oh I'm not saying they are overpriced, just that $400 is a lot right now considering I already have EVERYTHING except my barrel right now. If I didn't have the bolt, carrier, charging handle, upper, etc. I would probably already have one of these. I believe the upper is billet so $220 for the receiver is actually a fine price!

Actually I might have been lying. The one I saw in the other thread was the American Spirit Arms, not the Quality Arms. I guess I've been eying the wrong one for a month now. Good thing I didn't order it.

The biggest feature I like about the ASA side charger is the NON-reciprocating charging handle.

Presently on backorder, but very nice uppers http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/de...ct_id=1657

Mega makes good stuff and I have had my eye on that upper......but, then you need to track down a compatible carrier, which may be tough.

Hi Guys let me assure you all of our Carriers are either hard nickel or in the case of the side chargers come with nickel boron carriers. Should a customer want just the carrier, charging handle that attaches to the carrier, gas plug and modified bolt release then we will sell them for $350. Now as most here will be using a Grendel bolt you would still need the firing pin. retaining pin. and cam pin which we carry and should there be a group order we will supply those parts free of charge. We also do left eject ambidextrous charge and ambidextrous eject uppers as well. The uppers are in stock as we speak and a new batch go to the anodizers Friday.
