Good price.
Curious why they went with the detachable Shell deflector/Forward Assist?
Any other pics out there of this upper, like the other side, with the block removed and what it looks like with the spartan lower together

want
for whatever reason the JOB lower and the CMT upper didnt fit very well together. Front takedown pin is a PITA to remove and the upper and lower have friction when tilting the upper on the front pin. Cant explain why, both appear to be drilled straight on the pin hole, no visible issues that my calibrated eyeball can tell. I will likely end up getting this upper and seeing if its a better fit.
Also, the CMT upper fits all my other lowers great and the JBO lower fits all my other uppers fine. Dont know why, just didnt mix well. Yours may vary

Just built a 10.5 pistol with this lower and everything was perfect except the holes for the takedown pins weren't finished correctly and it needed to be cleaned up and the front and rear detent pin spring holes weren't drilled all the way through

They wanted to be able to make the upper modular. Some people don't like forward assists.
I should be getting mine in the mail on Wednesday and will post some updated pictures.
