603 m16a1 upper assy
This upper is awesome.It looks great. Fit and finish is excellent. FSB is straight NOT Canted Overall build quality is excellent. As a owner of a PSA H&R retro m16a1 upper assy.the TNTE is better quality and more accurate.. Also the PSA came with a 8 slot a1 type flash hider which is not accurate.

Great clone upper
Very good quality reproduction upper. I paired this upper with a bad attitude department m16a1 clone lower and it matches great. I've only put 100rds through it but it ate both steel and brass cased 55gr great. Everything else appears correct and functions great.

1000 rounds later
The finish is excellent. The Head Space is spot on. The value for the price is excellent. With that said. I have put 1000 rounds down range. The barrel groups are nice. This finish is rugged. The upper receiver is clean and spot on. I am very pleased with the product for the money spent.

M16a1 1/9
The upper arrived in a very timely manner and I was very pleased and impressed. Great job and it made me think about my first time I held the M16a1 in 1984 while in Marine Corps boot camp at Parris Island SC!

Retro 603 upper
Very happy with this upper so far, fit and finish on all parts look great. Haven't gotten to really group it on paper, but accuracy seems more than acceptable with the few mags I've put on steel so far.
