    Default I have a question about Larue uppers???

    On the website it says there are NO M4 feedramps in their Stealth upper receiver.
    I have only owned uppers with M4 feedramps.
    Anyone know the reliability of having no feed rmaps?

    When I save up enough cash to purchase one, always have wanted the DMR-16 upper.
    So basically the upper receiver on this sweet little gem has no feedramps
    and I am just a bit concerned of the feeding issues that could present itself
    from shooting it, even though after every range trip, I clean my firearms
    very well and clean just 1 firearm a day to ensure I dont get complacent while cleaning.

    Appreciate any insight from folks who ACTUALLY have owned a larue upper or complete Larue rifle.

    Mid length and rifle length gas AR's don't really benefit from them. IMO 16" carbine gas AR's can make due without as well.

    Ditto on that and on my DMR upper as well.

    You wont have a problem with LaRue. All of mine are bad ass and no failures. Save up for a complete rifle. The fit and finish is amazing.

    Only 1 of my ar platforms has M4 feed ramps, never an issue.. Until they were offered to the public civilians got along just fine w/out them. Same for red dots and other "new fangled" creations.
