FAQ

What lower receiver does this upper fit?

It is built for DPMS-pattern (LR-308 style) AR-10 lower receivers (DPMS low profile). Check your lower's pattern before ordering, since large-frame AR dimensions are not fully standardized.

No. The upper ships without a BCG or charging handle; you can add a .308/AR-10 BCG and charging handle as options on this page.

What muzzle device is installed?

A Tanker muzzle brake on a 5/8-24 thread, which reduces recoil and muzzle rise.
