So I'm on Brownells website tonight and I come across a DPMS C7A1 stripped upper on sale for $69.99! Wow. It states it is made to order for the Canadian army and comes with the forward assist and shell deflector. I just snagged a stripped A2 off the EE 2 weeks ago but I don't know how I can pass that kind of a deal up.

And yes you can buy this from Brownells for those of you that are going to say something to the contrary. It takes 4 pieces of paper to fill in and most of the filling in is name and address, along with "What are you going to do with it?" question. Easy Peasy.

Did anyone else see this deal and am jumping on it? Will this upper take all the normal A1 sight parts?
 
This is what it says:

Fully machined and finished Stripped Upper Receiver,replicating the Canadian C7 receiver. This receiver is great for retro builds, as it is close to the original M16A1 configuration, but with the addition of the shell deflector. Rear sight accepts A1 components. Receiver accepts standard forward assist and ejection port cover components. Receiver features a matte black anodized finish, is machined from aluminum and fits standard AR15/M16 barrels, receivers and internal parts.

Well I found someone to take my newly acquired A2 stripped upper receiver of me and I've ordered the C7 from brownells, the A1 rear sight and teardrop forward assist. Should see everything in 4-6 weeks. Can't wait. Found a complete furniture set for the A1 as well. Just need to get my barrel ordered and we are in business. I guess I need to find an A1 buttstock tube, spring and buffer now.

I'll post pics one I have everything in hand.

Later...
