The Aegis 16-Inch Carbine-Gas .223 Wylde AR-15 Assembled Upper from Davidson Defense delivers dependable performance and precision in a rugged, fully assembled platform. Featuring a 16-inch heavy HBAR barrel made from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium with a 1:8 twist rate, it’s built for accuracy with both .223 Rem and 5.56 NATO loads.
The carbine-length gas system ensures smooth, reliable operation, while the micro low-profile gas block keeps things streamlined. The upper receiver is forged from 7075-T6 aluminum with an anodized finish and M4 feed ramps for reliable feeding. A 12-inch freefloat M-Lok handguard offers rock-solid accessory mounting, and the included AR-15 1/2x28 TPI GI birdcage flash hider helps minimize muzzle flash. Built for builders who demand strength and versatility, the Aegis upper is ready to install and hit the range.
