Not exactly. They are compatible as long as you stay with the same brand (exemple: JG HK416 upper on JG M4 lower) but the HK416 upper receiver has several different features, so installing a 416 rail system on any M4 will NOT work.

As you're in the US, i'd advise you to just buy a JG HK416 or a DBoys HK416 (depending on the brand of your gun) and get rid of the lower. HK416 uppers are not sold separately.
