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

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

This is a complete left-handed AR-15 upper 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 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. A Davidson Defense premium left-handed M16 nitride bolt carrier group and a Mil-Spec M4 charging handle complete the upper component set.

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.

Bolt Carrier Group and Charging Handle

The Davidson Defense premium left-handed M16 nitride bolt carrier group is a purpose-built left-hand BCG designed to function with the left-handed upper receiver and eject cases from the left side of the build. The Mil-Spec M4 charging handle pairs with the BCG inside the upper receiver to complete the upper interior. These two components complete the upper component set alongside the upper assembly, barrel, and handguard.

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 upper.
