Building a precise, dependable AR-15 starts with a quality upper receiver. For builders and armorers who value mil-spec fitment, repeatable tolerances, and a foundation that accepts common mil-spec components, this stripped upper offers a low-cost, high-value platform that won’t need rework to mate to standard lowers or handguards.

AERO PRECISION STRIPPED UPPER RECEIVER

The AERO PRECISION STRIPPED UPPER RECEIVER is forged from 7075-T6 aluminum and precision-machined to mil-spec M16/M4 dimensions. Those material and machining choices give you a strong, lightweight receiver with the kind of hole spacing and feed geometry that ensures compatibility with standard barrels, handguards, and bolt carrier groups. At $81.89, it’s an economical way to control the heart of your build without sacrificing fit and finish.

Key features and why they matter

Forged 7075-T6: Industry-standard for strength-to-weight, giving a stout platform that handles repeated stress and heat better than many cast or billet alternatives.

Mil-spec M16/M4 machining: Ensures takedown pin alignment and rail mounting geometry match common lowers and accessories for straightforward assembly.

M4 feedramps: Improves reliable feeding with common AR magazines and reduces the need for feed ramp fitting when pairing with standard barrels and BCGs.

.250 takedown pin holes and laser engraved T-Marks: These details make installation precise and consistent — especially useful for gunsmiths and builders who value repeatability.

Fitment, finish, and completion notes

This upper ships stripped and anodized black. It requires a dust cover, forward assist, charging handle, barrel, handguard, gas block, muzzle device, gas tube and BCG to complete the rifle — plan your parts list accordingly. The upper is designed to pair cleanly with Aero Precision lowers for a near-drop-in match, a benefit when assembling a reliable day-to-day defensive or range rifle.
