The M16A2 stripped upper receiver is expertly machined from a carry handle forging, ensuring robust compatibility with standard AR-15 components, including barrels and bolt carrier groups. This receiver is designed for enthusiasts looking to assemble a classic yet versatile firearm. For a seamless assembly experience, consider the Brownells upper receiver Completion kit (430108375), which provides all the necessary parts to complete your build. This forged receiver boasts a durable matte black anodized finish, reminiscent of the later production A2 rifles, offering both aesthetic appeal and resilience. While it mirrors the M16A2 design by omitting M4 feedramps, it maintains compatibility with barrels both with and without M4 feedramps, providing flexibility in your build options. The integrated carry handle is engineered to accommodate standard attachments, making it ideal for bipoding optics such as ACOGs and Brownells Retro 4x Scopes. Whether you're building a retro style rifle or a modern variant, this upper receiver delivers the reliability and performance expected from a high-quality component.
