Details

The Radical Firearms AR-15 upper receiver assembly comes ready out of the box to attach to any Mil-Spec lower receiver. It has a forged M4 railed upper so you can easily attach scopes and red dot sights to the MIL-STD rail. The upper receiver is does not include bolt carrier group or charging handle but comes complete with a Mil-Spec upper parts kit that includes an ejection port cover and forward assist. The barrel is 16” of 4140 chromoly steel with a Melonite coating and is attached via a steel barrel nut. The barrel has a 1:7 twist, designed to stabilize heavier 556 NATO and 223 Remington ammo at intermediate ranges. Don't worry, this twist rate will still stabilize common 55 grain FMJ ammo as well, so your range time won't be affected by not being able to find 62 grain Gold Dots. Attached to the heavy SOCOM profile barrel is a Zero Impulse muzzle brake for enhanced recoil control. The brake is threaded 1/2x28 threads. This barreled upper receiver is an awesome way to finish your AR-15 build with money left over.

I used this upper assembly for my first build and it shot great.

Radical Firearms upper SKU: FU16-5.56SOC-15RPR-ZS

Looks like a decent upper. It did have mooshed flats on the muzzle break like someone stripped the wrench ends when twisting on the muzzle break. That and a couple blemishes on the Upper... But it arrived quickly and really are out of stock allready so I guess not much I can do about it.. I haven't fired it yet as it is out getting the muzzle break pinned .....thanks NJ... :(

handguard came loose, gas leaks from block

by

The headline says it all, really. The handguard came loose after around 500 rounds. It came with no teardown manual so i guessed how tight to tighten the screws and ended up stripping the allen head. After finally getting the screws off i discovered tons of residue from gas escaping between the gas block and gas tube. Not great for keeping carcinogens and lead residue off your hands. I'm waiting to hear from Radical Firearms to get replacement screws.
