Does this upper include a BCG or charging handle?
No — the BCG and charging handle are sold separately as an add-on so you can match the finish to your build.
What handguard comes with it?
A 15″ Keymod free-float handguard finished in Cerakote Flat Dark Earth – FDE to match the receiver.
Will this fit my AR-15 lower?
Yes, it’s a standard mil-spec AR-15 upper and drops onto any mil-spec lower receiver.
What’s the barrel twist rate?
1:7, which stabilizes heavier 5.56/.223 bullets well if you run 62-77 grain projectiles.
Is this upper fully assembled?
Yes, the upper itself is fully assembled — only the BCG and charging handle need to be added to complete it.
Is there a different rail option in this color?
Yes, see the linked matching version above if you’d rather run the other rail style.

It’s so hard to believe that it costs so little for such amazing workmanship and quality! I’ve literally never had one malfunction from day one. Daytona tactical is absolutely the best! I will definitely be buying more of these in different colors!
