Hey Greg, Have you heard any word about another run of Black Hole Weaponry's New Railed upper? I didn't buy one last year and I've been regretting it ever since then !! If anyone decides to sell one I'd sure like to have one.. It's been over a year, but I'm still waiting and hoping they will make another run of them . Eric Just in case Greg decides to keep his upper you can purchase a brand new one. Tactical Ammunition has purchased the manufacturing rights to build our Railed Uppers. Check out their website, they are selling the upper and complete BCG for $330.

I didn't know that? I'll have to check them out for sure! Will I need to buy the buffer system that use to be sold with the railed upper when Carl was building them? I don't know what was different about it but there was a particular type that you had to buy to go with it..... Thanks for the information and I would like to hear someone's input about the new railed uppers being manufactured by this other company, if anyone has purchased one from them.. Thanks
Eric

Thanks Eric There is no different buffer set up needed. Mine use the regular stuff and I swap the complete upper back and forth on my lower with other caliber uppers. The company is well regarded and I would not hesitate to buy from them. They are very close to BHW in some research and development areas and the two have a mutual support system going on. Greg

Nope, you will not need to buy a specific buffer system.
We stopped outsourcing the railed uppers because the company we had gone with before couldn't deliver them on time. So instead we sold manufacturing rights to Heller Enterprises to produce both the left and right handed railed uppers. They also have acquired the rights to manufacture the 308 uppers in the future, although I don't know what their production timeline looks like for those yet. They also produce a couple versions of our Dragon's head Muzzle breaks.
Even though we don't sell them through our shop anymore, Carl still works directly with Rob, the owner/operator of Heller Enterprises/Tactical Ammunition to maintain Quality control. The decision to do it like this came from the high volume of customer feedback regarding our railed uppers and Muzzle breaks. Working with another company allows us to continue focusing on just barrels while still being able to supply some of our proprietary parts.
