I found a ar lower that is cal legal and was woundering if any style ar upper will work with it want to build a 16 inch carbine style with a flat top this already has the a-4 stock

most any should work. a bit of slight filing may be needed for the pin holes to line up, but its not usually needed.

if its a colt lower you run into pin size problems but in general i think yes all uppers will fit most lowers

forgot all about the large pin Colt's.

This might help ya too. AR's are fairly easy to work on.

obtw another? can you make a striper clip work for reloading since this is basicly an internal mag like just to load rounds like an sks

What is a california legal model? What is the diff?

Cali requires a closed magwell, IIRC.

SSS, the best thing I can think of would be having a smith put a couple of stainless steel bushings in your pin holes, and using quick-takedown pins, to allow you to flip the upper open, and shove some rounds in. There is a Cali-compliant sub-culture growing, so someone may have come up with a stripper-clip conversion, but I haven't heard about it. As above, ar15.com is your best resource.

thanks all for the info as usual verry helpfull i love this place lol
rugger we can own one just has to have an internal 10 rnd mag so you push the rear pin and flip the upper up to load

Enjoy your AR, too bad Cali doesn't trust ya with a detachable mag gun.

 

[ssssthesnake]

like you couldnt do damage with 10 rnds to think we elect thease dodos no offence to the bird

 

[ssssthesnake]
