Manufacturer: Vltor Weapon Systems MUR-1A
Item: ARR-197

The Vltor Modular Upper Receiver or MUR is forged out of 7075 aircraft grade aluminum that has been stress relieved, heat treated, and then cryogenically treated. This, along with the thicker walls of the receiver, makes the MUR stronger and more rigid than a standard billet flat-top upper, and with the forward assist deleted it weighs in at only 8 ounces. Including the forward assist it weighs slightly more at 10 ounces. The greater strength and rigidity of the MUR gives the shooter a more accurate and reliable platform while reducing wear and tear on the bolt carrier. Available with or without a forward assist.

MUR with forward assist (ARR-197)

This upper is great. Fits perfectly on my M&P lower. Looks great, feels really nice. CTD is amazing and shipping was fast. I'll be buying more from them.

Reviewer: Jeremy
Haven't shot the gun since install, but I'll tell ya, it's very clean. There is a slight gap with my S&W M&P15 lower, but it's OK. With the gas block, gas tube, etc. installed, it looks beautiful. Want a new upper receiver? Go with VLTOR and you'll be happy. Thanks for the very fast shipping from CTD :-) Another happy customer.

Used this for a .300 Blackout build and it worked perfectly. Color and fitment matched up well with my spikes lower.

Reviewer: jbou
This thing is awesome, great quality. It even sounds different when handled compared to other receivers. Finish matches my Ace SOCOM stock, and YHM lower perfectly. This is my go-to receiver from now on

Reviewer: Brian W
I was skeptical at first about the other reviews and this upper looks and performs great. No problem fitting to my spike's tactical lower. Has a sleek look that's different from other uppers. Considering buying another for my next build.

Reviewer: whiskey
Received my upper on Tuesday afternoon. Took a bit of work to get the front takedown in, tight fit. Took all the slop out of my s&w m&p. Might be able to close the upper and lower with a sheet of rice paper in between them, would take some force to do it, though. The finish is where it loses 2%, close but discernible difference between oem and it. Love it! Going to order another for my varmint gun build.

5.0 Rating VLTOR MUR Upper - 5/19/2011AR-15 Upper Receiver Modular VLTOR With Forward Assist With Shell Deflector Rigid Mil-Spec FlatTop5.0000
Reviewer: Dynamite Amps Co
This is the best upper I've ever bought. Machine quality is excellent. Fit in a smith and wesson M&P 15 lower like it was from the factory that way. Slid in with no resistance and absolutely no play when the breakdown pins are inserted. Will without a doubt buy again when building my next AR.
