Overview

Built for AR-15 builders who want a stripped upper receiver as a starting point, this Battle Arms Development Inc. component provides a clean foundation for a custom setup. It is made from 7075-T6 aluminum and finished with Type III hard coat anodizing in matte black, with a top notch cut to match the WORKHORSE aesthetic. The M4 feed ramp is included, while the ejection port and forward assist are not. As a blemished part, it may suit a practical build where function and value matter more than cosmetic perfection.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • This is a stripped upper receiver, so it does not include an ejection port or forward assist and will require those parts separately if your build calls for them.
  • The listing identifies it as a blemished item, so cosmetic imperfections may be present even though the functional description is otherwise standard.
  • The finish is described as matte black, while the title also references FDE, so buyers should verify the exact finish/color before ordering.
  • It is specific to AR-15 builds and includes an M4 feed ramp, so compatibility should be confirmed against the rest of the upper and lower components in the build.
