Your call of course, but for things that may or may not come months later most stores will give a refund without much questions

Are you going suppressed with that?

Not sure about that chambering unless you are going to put a can on it.

I know it's too late, but for information purposes parts can still be found online. I just built an 11 1/2" 5.56 upper for about $400. I could have built a 10.5" 300blk upper for about the same price. This did not include bcg and charging handle, but they can be found online for about $150.

I found most of what I needed from at3 tactical.com, but I could have used multiple vendors.

On a side note, if your are intending to suppress the uppers, I would look at gas piston uppers that gives suppressor mode or no cycle mode. Not only quieter, you don't get the gas in your face.

What do you mean by gas in your face?

I have a factory gas op AR pistol that I have shot suppressed a bit.

A bit more carbon to clean off the bolt? Sure.

Not sure why a certain type of piston op is better- maybe a bit cleaner, but safer and more reliable (for those who maintain things at least minimally) ? Not really seeing this- and I do own both...
