Does anyone have any first hand experience with their uppers? How is the quality?

Never heard of them. Why not buy a BCM, Colt, LMT, Daniel Defense, Noveske, or KAC?

Where are these guys coming from?

I'm sorry if I have asked a question about something I am looking at possibly buying.

Why am I not buying Noveske, KAC, LMT or others is strictly affordability. I work very hard for what $$ I have available for a new rifle. Unfortunately I don't earn enough to save the amount needed to buy these. I'm sure others are in the same position and are trying to get the best possible components available to them and their budgets.

I know that these top tier companies produce the best components available, but thats not what I am asking about.

Why is it that people with the least money are the most likely to gamble with the little they do have? That is what you are doing if you buy a $250 upper. If I were in your position and had to have an AR I would save for a S&W. It's not KAC but it is fairly well respected for an inexpensive rifle and backed by a good warranty.

Astounding, isn't it....

I've got a safe full of "top tier" rifles, but when I decided to keep a carbine in the trunks of 3 vehicles, I was NOT putting my decked out guns where they could (relatively) easily be stolen.
I went with PSA Premium and Freedom line guns. I bought all parts on sale, with free shipping and used only PSA Premium BCGs. I paid no more than $500 for any of them. I am very, very pleased with those purchases. To vette them, I shot them almost exclusively for over a year. I have not had a single hiccup or issue of any kind in a combined three or four thousand rounds

That is what you are doing if you buy a $250 upper.

This one's $224 and you can get it with the keymods:

Boatsman, this is good advice, but you asked about an upper, so I'm assuming you have a lower. I'm not aware of S&W selling Sport II uppers separately, so I recommended PSA.

Any old gun will do for getting it stolen... isn't that the point of leaving unattended weapons in a vehicle?

I recommended PSA.

I wouldn't recommend PSA for anything, but if/when you get one, don't forget to reach up there and get a mighty grasp on that gas block and see if it will do-the-twist before wasting any ammunition on it.
