My NEA-15 Arrived!

I'm not suggesting to further thin the trigger bow, but to eliminate the bottom fillet and instead use a top fillet with only a slight radius on the bottom of the guard.

For most users it won't make any difference, but for shooters with gloves, particularly thicker gloves like used for shooting in the cold winter months, it would be a nice feature in my personal opinion.
 
ummm WTF wheres the made in canada stamp?

On the other side of the receiver.

It says;

North Eastern Arms
Made in Canada

We're proud to be able to provide a Canadian made product here and to the rest of the world, and they like seeing it too.

I believe below is what Claven is refering to. Anyway, now that we've all hijacked the thread...............................

Sorry Slug!

I wish the hand guard clamped from the bottom like the troy ... they should sell some without the hand guard at a bit lower price .. i think that hand guard is the deal breaker for alot of people , i really dont like it , but the upper and lower look very nice

you can buy the upper alone. You can even buy a matched receiver set and go from there.
 
If you order directly from NEA they would likely sell you a gun less hand guard if you asked. Bear in mind their HG uses the M16 barrel nut, so if you want another rail to drop in, you need one that also uses the std nut.
 
The OP's receiver seems to have the forward assist boss rounded. The later picture shows as being squared.
Personally, I like the squared version, in keeping with this guns overall angularity. The rounded one shows the steps of the CNC machining.
Should have been smoothed imho.
What is the difference?

The angular one is an NEA receiver, the rounded one is an ATRS receiver.

The machiining lines are a function of cutting radii with a round ball cutter end-mill to approximate a smoothly rounded surface. The "smoothness" is a function of how many passes you make, and time is money, so everything in machining steps is a trade-off.
