Any comments on these two manufacturers? Also, what do people think of the side-charging uppers (ar15) by ASA?

I am also looking for any critiques of the Comp ML vs Relflex II sites.

Thanks,
Jason

I'm not a big fan of side charging uppers on AR type
firearms, mostly personal preference, the Daewoo's
were great rifles but I would have liked those even
more if they were top charging uppers.

The other LTS or one of the others can answer better
than myself as I haven't personally researched or tested
these two mfg's as of yet.

I have had a lot of success with Rock River. Their stuff is excellent and is priced right.

Before you decide on ASA's side bolt handle, take a look at my web site. I can install a left side bolt handle for less than half the cost of an ASA or DPMS. An article about my bolt handles will be in "Guns & Weapons for Law Enforcement" sometime the first of next year.

Take a look.

I can not comment on the ASA, however I have a RRA M4 that is one of my favorites to shoot. I also have a RRA 9mm upper on the way. that will combined with a yellow CavArms lower. Although I might get another RRA lower and make it a complete RRA dedicated 9mm. The fit and finish of the RRA is 2nd to none IMHO.

I bought an ASA 16" carbine a few years ago. I bought it straight from thier showroom as they are here in AZ where I am. Nice rifle, fit and finish is very nice and it has not had one problem. Plus they stand behind their guns. When I bought mine they said if I ever had a problem with the gun, not to even attempt to fix it, just bring it back and they would take care of it, for life. What more can you ask for...
