Armalite M-15 Parts

[Cobec]

Hi, I searched around and couldn't find an definitive answer so I'm just looking for some clarification. I assume M-15 is just the Armalite designation for there AR-15. I was looking at Armalite M-15 parts to use in my AR-15 build and just wanted to make sure that they standard AR-15 parts that are just given a special designation by Armalite. I didn't want to buy anything and then find out I'd have a compatibility issue installing them. Thanks in advance.

I built my AR from a Dlask Lower. I did not order an LPK cause I planned to use an upgrade trigger, grip, and trigger guard, and didn't want the extra crap kicking around.

So I custom assembled my LPK, every spring, even pin, from Armalite parts from Wolverine.

Everything fit as it should except for ONE minor issue. The little paddle on their bolt release is fatter and a slightly different design then most other bolt release paddles.
I scored a Tactical Link Battery Assist Level off the EE and it would not fit. I have yet to try a Magpul BAD lever.

Also, my I got the Armalite Barrel Nut and Delta assy'. Some spot welds on the delta spring let go, turning effectively into two smaller Delta springs.
It makes lining things up while installed the barrel a bit more tricky, but once the gastube is thru', it's functionally fine.
Pretty sure that ones just a fluke defect.

Something to think about, Otherwise everything fit great.

I put a magpul trigger guard on my armalite lower and had to file some of it down as it was blocking the mag well just enough to be a problem with some mags.

Thanks for the feedback, I was mainly looking at the buffer tube, end plate and spring. I have a Aero Percision lower and will be using a DD lower parts kit.

Buffer tube with an Endplate ? You're going Carbine Stock ? I'll assume you know there are 2 diff sized of Carbine Tube.

Yeah, you should be good to go for stuff like that.

Tidbit of info, if you don't know already, the AR in AR-15 stands for "ARmalite". They were the original designer/maker of the AR-15 before it got licensed to Colt.
So, in ways, Armalite defined the specs that all other AR's are based on.

Ya, I'm going with a carbine stock and by the two different sizes I'm assuming your referring to Mil spec and Commercial? Thanks for the tidbit I didn't know that.
