Davidson Defense 'Conductor' 10.5-Inch AR-15 5.56 NATO Nitride Drop-In Pistol Full Build Kit
The Conductor Full Build Kit is built around an ELD Performance 10.5-inch 5.56 NATO front sight base barrel machined from 4150 chrome moly vanadium steel in a government profile, with a carbine-length gas system, a 1:8 twist, and a black Nitride finish. The barrel includes an A2 F-marked front sight base with a round handguard cap, taper pins, and an A2 delta ring assembly. It is paired with a Davidson Defense mil-spec 7075-T6 aluminum upper receiver with M4 feed ramps and a B5 Systems drop-in carbine-length M-LOK handguard in Flat Dark Earth. The kit ships with a Recoil Technologies 5.56x45mm bolt carrier group, a mil-spec quality M4 charging handle, an Omega Mfg. buffer tube kit, and an SB Tactical SBA3 pistol brace. The drop-in M-LOK handguard keeps the classic front sight base layout while adding accessory mounting, and the 1:8 twist suits a wide range of bullet weights in 5.56 NATO. Lower receiver is not included. Lower parts kit, pistol grip, and buffer weight details were not supplied with this listing.

Barrel and Gas System
The 10.5-inch ELD Performance barrel is machined from 4150 chrome moly vanadium steel in a government profile and finished in black Nitride, a surface treatment that adds hardness and corrosion resistance while leaving a clean, matte black look. Its 1:8 twist rate is suited to a wide range of bullet weights in 5.56 NATO. The integrated A2 F-marked front sight base is pinned with taper pins and fitted with a round handguard cap and an A2 delta ring assembly, which holds the drop-in handguard in place. The carbine-length gas system runs through an Omega Mfg. stainless steel gas tube. At the muzzle, 1/2x28 threads carry the included Recoil Technologies A2 GI birdcage flash hider.
Upper Receiver and Handguard
The upper receiver is a Davidson Defense mil-spec AR-15 unit machined from 7075-T6 aluminum with M4 feed ramps, a strong, lightweight alloy widely used for AR-15 receivers. It is paired with a B5 Systems drop-in carbine-length M-LOK handguard in Flat Dark Earth. The drop-in design retains the traditional carbine profile, and the M-LOK slots give the builder room to mount lights, grips, handstops, and other accessories. The FDE color gives the build a tan, earth-toned look against the black barrel and upper.
Bolt Carrier Group and Charging Handle
The included Recoil Technologies bolt carrier group is listed as a 5.56x45mm unit and is paired with a Recoil Technologies mil-spec quality M4 charging handle, completing the core working components of the upper.
Buffer System and Brace
The kit includes an Omega Mfg. buffer tube kit. An SB Tactical SBA3 pistol brace is included. It is designed to slide onto and adjust along a mil-spec carbine buffer tube, and buffer tube type was not supplied with this listing and should be confirmed before purchase.

This kit is built for AR-15 lower receivers chambered in 5.56 NATO. Upper receiver finish, forward assist and ejection port door configuration, lower parts kit, pistol grip, buffer weight, recoil spring, castle nut, and end plate inclusion were not supplied with this listing and should be confirmed before purchase.
