I have a Metal Tech M16-length RAS on my M16A3, and with the replacement of the front sight tower with a gas block and an SPR flashider is all I'd need to give it the SPR look.

And Wey, go to a gun shop like TSE and ask for a stripped AR upper. They will know what you are talking about. You should pay about $200 and will get just the upper, no bolt carrier, barrel, barrel nut or carry handle. Alot of guys sell complete uppers with barrel, etc for about $600-$800.
That answers my question perfectly.

I'm actually considering getting the M4A1 carbine PTW and putting on my G&P RAS2 replica. The PTW's carbine outer barrel should be compatible with the G&P RAS2, as long as the delta ring/barrel nut fits on the receiver.
