Davidson Defense Left-Handed Aegis 16-inch Carbine-Gas 1:7 5.56 NATO AR-15 Freefloat M-Lok Handguard Rifle Upper Build Kit

Left-Handed Aegis 16-Inch Carbine-Gas 1-7 5.56 NATO AR-15 Freefloat M-LOK Handguard Rifle Upper Build Kit

This is a left-handed AR-15 upper build kit chambered in 5.56 NATO, built around a 16-inch medium profile 4150 CrMoV steel barrel with a nitride finish, a 1-7 twist rate, and a carbine-length gas system. The Black Diamond Series left-handed slick side billet aluminum upper receiver with a black anodized finish anchors the front end with a left-hand ejection port and a clean slick side exterior that omits the forward assist and dust cover from the receiver body. The carbine-length stainless steel gas tube and micro low-profile gas block at .750 complete the gas system, and the 15-inch ultra-lightweight minimalist freefloat M-LOK handguard covers the forend. An A2 GI Birdcage flash hider at 1-2x28 closes out the muzzle end. BCG and charging handle are not included.

Upper Receiver and Barrel

The Black Diamond Series left-handed slick side billet aluminum upper receiver anchors the front end with a left-hand ejection port and a clean slick side exterior profile that omits both the forward assist and dust cover from the receiver body. The 16-inch medium profile 4150 CrMoV steel barrel brings a nitride finish and a 1-7 twist rate to the 5.56 NATO chamber, threaded at 1-2x28. The carbine-length stainless steel gas tube and micro low-profile gas block at .750 run a carbine-length gas system along the 16-inch barrel. The 15-inch ultra-lightweight minimalist freefloat M-LOK handguard surrounds the barrel and gas system along the forend with M-LOK slots along the handguard body for accessory attachment. The handguard does not include anti-rotation tabs, a design characteristic of this specific unit.

Muzzle Device

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

Follow safe handling and manufacturer instructions. Ensure compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws. BCG and charging handle are not included.
