Description
Enhanced M5E1 Upper with Internal Barrel Nut
The Aero Precision M5 Enhanced Upper features an internal steel barrel nut and a secondary forged mounting surface for Aero Precision M5 enhanced handguards. This upper separates stress on the barrel and handguard, reducing deflection and increasing accuracy. This is especially important for shooters using laser aiming modules on their handguards, reducing the chance of zero shift.
This upper receiver features the same enhanced body profile as the threaded M5 Upper Receiver, matching the M5 lower receiver. It is forged from 7075-T6 Aluminum, precision machined to work with mil-spec AR15 parts, and includes the pre-installed port door and forward assist.
Note: This upper receiver will not work with standard handguards. Use Aero Precision M5 Enhanced handguards only.
