So look fat, here's the deal. I have an AR-15 that's in an A2 style, with the fully integrated carry handle upper, and I don't want to put a rail and optic on top of it because it not only looks stupid but it also compromises it's shoot ability.

So I ordered this assembled upper receiver: https://www.opticsplanet.com/aero-precision-m4e1-threaded-assembled-upper-receiver.html

Now I've never swapped an upper or any components, so I'd like to know what I should expect to need for the job. Can I just swap this upper in place of the one on now, and then keep my Magpull MOE M-LOK handguard and barrel? Is there anything specific I need to do in order to do that, any tools I need, do you have a guide maybe?

I'd really appreciate any input y'all can guide me with.

Pulled an all nighter tonight, took too many stims too late.. just waiting for the good news sticky threads to roll in!

...say experts familiar with this matter. The EXPERTS say it, among other sources that were anonymously verified*! Why won't you bigots just accept this?!

*May not actually be verified, terms and conditions apply.

I have about 500 rounds of 9mm for my pistols, only one box of .357 Magnum for my revolver, and about 1100 in .223/5.56 NATO for my rifles. Should this be sufficient for now or should I look into getting more?

And am wondering, why will the current administration band moderators not concede?

I think that would be the most diplomatic way to go about this.

Fuck off Lightfoot.

So far it's normal.

I also have one question for you all. Why hasn't President Blumpf conceded yet and why are you all racist?

This will be the ultimate middle finger. We can mine millions of tons of salt with this alone.

I'm looking to buy a complete upper and swap it out. I have a Colt AR-15 that has the carry handle, so I want to be able to mount an optic on top and with the carry handle, it's a problem due to the ridiculous height, even if I put a picatinny rail on top of it.

1. If I buy a complete upper, does it have everything I need installed on it out of the box, or do I need to install the bolt carrier, the charging handle etc? I have no idea how to do that.

2. Is it simple enough that I can take it down and swap the upper by myself or do I need to take it to a gunsmith?
