Precision-Focused Design

This upper combines a premium 416R stainless steel barrel with a 1:8 twist rate that stabilizes a wide range of .223 Wylde ammunition loads. The barrel profile and twist rate make this configuration suitable for both lighter varmint rounds and heavier match-grade ammunition. The nitride finish protects the barrel while maintaining its accuracy potential over extended shooting sessions.

Freefloat Handguard and Ergonomics

The 15-inch freefloat M-Lok handguard isolates the barrel from any contact with the upper receiver, preserving inherent accuracy. M-Lok slots run the full length of the handguard, giving you multiple options for mounting lights, grips, and other accessories. The aluminum construction keeps weight down while maintaining rigidity and heat dissipation during sustained fire.

Mid-Length Gas System Balance

The mid-length gas tube works with the low-profile gas block to deliver a balanced shooting experience. This configuration reduces felt recoil compared to carbine-length systems while maintaining reliable cycling. The stainless steel gas tube resists corrosion and provides consistent performance across different ammunition types and environmental conditions.

Complete Upper Ready to Mount

This upper includes everything needed except a lower receiver. The bolt carrier group uses 9310 nitride-finished alloy steel for maximum durability. The charging handle and flash hider come installed, and a crush washer is included for proper muzzle device fitment.

Follow safe handling and manufacturer instructions. Ensure compliance with all applicable laws. BCG and charging handle are included with this complete upper. Verify ammunition compatibility with .223 Wylde chamber specifications before use.
