Product description

The Battle Arms Development Workhorse Upper Receiver Assembly is an upper receiver assembly designed for AR-15 rifles chambered in 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington. This assembly features a 16 inch barrel with a mid-length gas system and includes a 15 inch M-LOK free-float handguard with a 1913 Picatinny top rail. It is designed to fit AR-15 lower receivers and functions as a complete upper excluding the bolt carrier group and charging handle.

The Battle Arms Development Workhorse Upper Receiver Assembly uses a forged 7075 T6 aluminum receiver and a 4150 chrome-moly vanadium barrel with a nitride finish. It features a 1:7 twist rate, 1/2×28 threaded muzzle with an A2 flash hider, and a low-profile gas block with a .750 diameter interface. This product is used for assembling or upgrading AR-15 rifles and supports standard configurations for range use. In typical setups, it attaches to compatible AR-15 lower receivers and requires a separate bolt carrier group and charging handle.
