What is Upper on an AR 15?

[luis11]

The uppers can be made from different metals. Among them, aluminum is the right choice. Firstly, you have to try the forged upper receivers. Hammering is done here, and you can even try out the upper billet receivers as well. AR-15 is a weapon that was once used by the US Military. But, the semi-automatic version never found its way to the war. The Fully automatic AR-15 is the ideal choice for the Armed forces.

Speaking guns , ammo is once again scarce . Shopping around and swung by Wally world to see if the little yellow smiley face had any .38 Spl and of course they were out . I was told that corporate put their foot down and there will be certain ammo that they will no longer sell . They will still sell guns though .

Just bought a springfield 9MM...I should have checked more closely since no one has ammunition. Bought a gun I can't shoot. I did get a couple of boxes with the pistol but that's it.

You'll be fine.
9mm is very common.
Can usually buy 1000 for less than 200

Good luck finding 1000 rounds for $200 now. I bought 1000 rounds last week and it cost me $300. They had a 500 round limit and as soon as it was on the shelf it was gone. Last year I was buying 1000 rounds for $160.

AR is a terrific piece of equipment. They remind me of snowmobiles with endless opportunities to customize. Have a couple of S&W M&P Sport II’s myself. Absolutely love them! One with lots of changes and one NIB. As for ammo I recommend you check bulk ammo options online. Hard to find but if you’re persistent you can find success. in fact 500 rounds arrive today and another 1000 rounds expected November 1.

After a little research, you are very correct.
Next "normal" cycle I will add to my surplus.

As far as "what is upper?" these types of diagrams are terrific to understanding the anatomy of the AR.
