Even "inexpensive" complete barreled uppers with the bolt/carrier/charging handle group run upwards of $500 these days. I don't think you have a snowball's chance of finding one for $200. It will be interesting to see if you can actually get that price.

The very best I've done, piecing one together:
$85 upper
$85 BCG
$140 barrel assy
$17 charging handle
----------------------
$327
And that was a year ago.

Complete & ready to run in .223/5.56mm. 16" or 20" OK. Traditional or flat top OK.

I understand NIB prices are higher. That's why I'm looking for a basic used upper.

Thank you for the interest.

Even used I still don't think you're going to be able to do that, firearms don't depreciate fast enough for you to find one, even in a not so over-hyped market...

If you don't care about time-frame, I would suggest putting the money in the bank and waiting a couple of years because eventually the units demanded will be much lower than units supplied because every company is in full production right now, and it'll catch up and they'll have to lower prices.

Bart, here is a complete AR barreled upper with charging handle and bolt/carrier assembly. It's not the price you wanted, but it's available.

If you find one of these mythical $200 uppers let me know where you got it ... I could use one.

He'll probably buy it from the same guy who pays $550 for your pistol. :smilelol5:
