So you're in the middle of building your own AR-15. You've gotten as far as building the bottom half, and you're now ready to tackle your upper assembly. Let's make this simple: if you can turn a screwdriver or a socket wrench to install backup sights or optics, we'll build your upper assembly.
This prebuilt upper assembly comes to you with a 16-inch barrel coated in black nitride, chambered in 5.56mm NATO, and made of 4150 chrome moly vanadium steel. It's been coupled with a 15-inch free-floating MLOK handguard. It also comes with the charging handle and BCG. All you need to do is install the sights or optic of your choice and then mount it onto your completed lower assembly.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a prebuilt upper assembly only. It includes an assembled upper receiver, bolt carrier group, and charging handle.
