    I would rather the retailer confirm this is a regular ar15 upper receiver that has not been modified. Without knowing that, the parts may not swap into a MS or similar upper

    when you remove the muzzle break, it's 18.5 inches from tip to bolt face.
    that's what i gave the RCMP tech and he was happy with it cause they issued my updated registration with it.

    Since you have one, can you tell if it is a std un modified ar 15 upper receiver?

    When you first pick it up it looks like a standard upper but it's not.
    The charge handle and the bolt are not standard. on the bottom of the upper back by the forward assist there is also some flap thing that drops down into the lower. No idea what the purpose of that flap is.

    I haven't fired mine yet. The process to get my registration updated from a frame to fire-able .410 took 6 weeks and by the time i got the new registration it turned cold and snowy.
    the upper was loose on my PA-15 lower. I had to do the o-ring trick on the pivot pin to make it nice and snug.

    Exactly, Even my first Restricted, long ago a beat up Norinco Commander, I paid $175 for, never jammed, consistently shot like 6" high :P, but she never jam!

    & I like the .410 upper, but it needs be mated to a NR receiver set.

    The upper is not exactly an ar15 upper.
    the cam pin is slightly different, bigger and the barrel nut is kinda special as it's part of the gas system and is screwed into place.
    I'm sure it could be made to work on a NR platform through some upper receiver grinding and tinkering but out of the box, no it cannot be stripped and built into an NR upper.

    I tried one through another vendor earlier in the year. I learned the expensive way.

    I was happy to get rid of that thing at a loss, and made the new owner fully aware of how terribly it operated.

    Maybe I had that 1 lemon out of the whole production run of these things, but it was enough to keep me away from these things for the rest of my life.


    Good luck to anyone diving in.....
