I'm looking to buy a new VFC upper for my 416 project. I've found a upper, but it's built around the 417. My question is there a difference with the 416 & the 417 in terms of the upper?
Thanks

The 417 is a 7.62 NATO caliber so the mag is much larger and therefore the magwell is longer. The 417 upper is also longer so it won't fit on a regular AR lower.

Fuck, and I just checked a comparison of the two. Your statement checks out. I guess I'll keep looking. Thanks for the answer though my man. |
