AR-15 FLATTOP UPPER RECEIVER

AR-15 FLATTOP UPPER RECEIVER Reviews & Ratings

M4/A3-style upper receiver is available stripped. Precision machined from a 7075 T6 aluminum alloy forging to USGI dimensions, and ready to mate with the mil-spec lower and internal components of your choice. Includes M4-type feed cuts and alphanumeric position markers stamped into the rail slots. Hardcoat anodized to resist wear, add strength, and protect from corrosion. Hard dry-lube surface treatment protects the anodizing from scuffs and reduces friction between bolt carrier and receiver walls for ultra-smooth operation, less wear, and longer service life.


SPECS: 7075 T6 aluminum, hardcoat anodized, dry-lube finish, matte black. .250” takedown/pivot pin holes.

Good Quality, Great Price
Picked one up during the obamascare, and wasn't sure what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality for how much I paid for this item.

Decent Upper
Its a good upper, not the best, but good. You will need a bushing or rubber block between the upper and lower as the fit is not the tightest. It functions fine and fitment was a non issue. It cycled all ammo put into it, including hand loads. Its good for a cheap build, or replacement.

Good Quality, Great Value!
It was hard for me to decide whether to give it 3 or 4 stars... So I rounded up. This upper is nice to be sure. Good quality. Fits as tight as my Bushmaster Upper. Really the only negative thing I could say is that it seems that they went a little skimpy on the finish. If you look close, you can tell that the bluing is good in some places, but really thin in other places.
