    You can use any AR upper but there's no reason to use one with a provision for a forward assist. Rainier Arms can sell you one without or you can go to RRA for a 9mm flat top upper.

    The DPMS slickside upper works well. (~$85). All mine have ramped bolts and "no hook" hammers..
    Ain't no pockets on a shroud..
