Battle Arms Development is highly respected by both recreational and competition shooters for the consistent quality of the parts they manufacture. BAD's complete AR-15 Workhorse upper is the perfect candidate for a custom rifle build. Its 16" A2 profile barrel is chambered in 5.56 NATO with a 1:8 twist rate. Projectiles on the heavier side will love this twist and produce the tightest groups, while lighter bullets should be reserved for casual plinking. The muzzle is threaded 1/2x28 and comes with a factory installed A2 flash hider, but it can also be easily swapped to match your shooting style. Unlike some "complete" uppers on the market, Battle Arms has included an excellent BCG and their ambidextrous Rack-15 charging handle. Compared to the mil-spec style typically provided, this is a must have for enhancing ergonomics on a modern tactical carbine. Not only will this upper perform extremely well, but the free floating 15" Workhorse handguard looks tough and features plenty of M-LOK slots for mounting your favorite accessories. Whether you are a casual shooter or serious AR guy, Battle Arms' Workhorse upper is an excellent addition to any build.
