I suspect I've entered into the world of building an LR-308 without adequate preparation. I've purchased a less-than-complete upper described as "Brand new DPMS LR-308 upper receiver assembly. Bolt & bolt carrier assembly is not included. Includes: 18" Bull Barrel, .308 Win. Railed Gas Block Aluminum Free Float Tube Lo-Pro Billet Upper Receiver Charging Handle". I know that I now need a complete lower (and please confirm that as I assume, an AR-15 lower will not work with a LR-308 upper) and bolt/bolt carrier. What I'm not clear on is if I will have a complete working upper if I also purchase a DPMS Bolt Assembly DPMS LR-308 Matte http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=992029 and a DPMS Bolt Carrier DPMS LR-308 Matte http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=416303. There seems to be some important parts missing from the descriptions/pictures, e.g., bolt key, firing pin. Thanks for any help or pointers to parts list/diagrams.
