Re: AR15 Uppers

Well to bu ultra honest I am kinda glad I canceled my Aero COP order.

My whole purpose behind this rifle was these 2 things.

#1 Have an ultra light rifle that my wife might feel comfortable shooting / carrying. Going with a Polymer lower and a Pencil barrel will make it as light as possible along with a small red dot and back up irons

#2 Have a rifle that I can theoretically find parts for anywhere. IE no custom parts but pretty much as universal as possible.

Getting a normal upper, lower, barrel, free float tube pretty much covers this.

Still trying to figure out if I go with Mil-Spec or Commercial buffer and tube.

1 aero and 2 new frontier polymer lowers, 6 makogroup 30 rd mags so far.

Re: AR15 Uppers

Nope never shipped.


Canceled my order as well.


I did get shipping notice from the aero lower I purchased directly from them.

Re: AR15 Uppers

I just purchased and have received tracking info from Brownells for this upper receiver.

http://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/re ... px?ttver=2" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It's a monolithic upper mid-length that is quite versatile. I just need a BCG, Gas Tube, and .625 Gas block.

It is supposed to be lighter and stronger than a free float system but has all the same benefits. I am pairing it with a pencil profile barrel for an ultra light weight setup that will have the least bit of recoil (mid-length gas system) hopefully.
