    I'm going the side charging route with a Bartlien from PF. Had been looking for the Mega side charging upper and a Young Manufacturing BCG for several months. Ended up finding a set slightly used off of AR15.com. About two weeks ago Rainier had the upper in stock for a day. I've never had a side charger and am really looking forward to putting this together. Good luck with yours!

      Thats the upper i just got too. I'm trying to find a Charge handle Carrier or will have to have my Machine shop drill and tap one. I hear they are super hard but was also told it can be done. Young is out of stock everywhere. Lucky you found a used one on AR-15. I saw one from AA on GB and it sold for $350. I didn't have the cash so couldn't scoop up on the deal.

      Side Charge Carriers for sale anywhere??

            Tedward, have you tried calling Young Manufacturing directly? Supposedly they've had a few available for retail in the past. www.youngmanufacturing.net

                  Also thanks to everyone on the differant types of side chargers, but think im going with the mega, even though i do like the asa, just a little more than i wanted to put into one.

                    Looks exactly like mine. Got the Mega upper from Ranier Arms about 1 year ago & love the combo.

                      Well show us the whole gun... come on, no teasing....

                      I like the super thickness of the MEGA SBU's. All of mine are No Side Charge and are rock solid.

                        Looking at the quality arms ambi. Anybody have any input as far as strength on that one? The ports on both sides makes me a little leary, but i do like the idea of right eject, left charge.

                          I've been talking to the owner for some time and will be getting one too as soon as he has them ready next week. They are top notch and there is no worry, extra thick and Billet. There isn't much side support needed on an upper and if you compare his to a Mil-Spec forged upper then you will understand that Quality Arms is way stronger. Also the ASA has a slot down the left side for the charge handle too and from what I here it isn't Billet, it extruded. Nothing wrong with them except more expensive, just different processes and both are heavier than a Mil-Spec forged.

                            Haven't talked to Quality Arms yet. Will their upper fit a Young Mfg side charger BCG properly?

                            Anyone know?
