Andy, PM me and we can trade email addresses. Id like you to email me a picture of the upper. I could use an A2 receiver.
Do you know how it shoots?
If it could be cut to between 13.7 and 14.5 getting rid of the integral brake, I'd likely go that route and pin/weld.
If you have an SBR lower, less than 13.7 wouldn't be an issue.
Be fun to play with.

Heavy barrel? Sounds like you need to make light machine gun with all legally acquired parts.
Its weird - no markings besides a number on the FSB and Cardinal forge mark on the receiver. Maybe I should put a sign on it in a gunshow stating it is a sanitized upper issued to the CIA operators during the Russian-Afgan war...
I sent GH41 some pics to see what he thinks.

If I was you.....
Make a game outa how cheap you can make a complete/functional AR. I actually did this same thing with spare parts. I think I got an AR running with a CHF barrel none the less for like $350. Ended up trading it for work on a trailer to a guy with no AR. He was super happy.
As long as it can shoot a mag or two without a stoppage and it can be zero'd it's a lot more gun than no gun.

So it’s garbage because of the lack of markings, the time period in which it was made, and the fact that you don’t know much about it?
My question: is it garbage because you don’t know what it is, or is it garbage because it doesn’t work?
If it works, build it into a budget rifle and keep it as a second or third rifle... or tenth rifle. Sure, don’t take it to Afghanistan or carry it for warrant service but I wouldn’t be selling anything that works at this point.
If it doesn’t work, sell it.
