Upper Receiver and Barrel

The 7075-T6 aluminum AR-15 upper receiver with a black anodized finish and M4 feed ramps forms the core of the front end, with a standard AR-15 forward assist and a standard AR-15 .223 and 5.56 ejection port door assembly built in. The 8.3-inch medium profile steel barrel brings a black nitride finish and a 1-10 twist rate to the 9mm chamber, threaded at 1-2x28. This upper operates on a direct blowback system, meaning there is no gas tube or gas block present or required on this upper. The 7-inch ultra-lightweight minimalist M-LOK handguard surrounds the barrel along the compact forend with a full-length Picatinny top rail for optics and accessory mounting and M-LOK slots along the remaining handguard surfaces for additional accessory attachment.

Muzzle Device

The 9mm pass-through A2 Birdcage flash hider in black threads onto the 1-2x28 muzzle end of the barrel. The included black crush washer seats at the barrel shoulder and completes the muzzle hardware for this kit.
