NBS 16" .223 Wylde Gov Mid M-LOK Upper Assembly Black - 8470
In stock
A quality upper assembly without cutting corners. This means starting with a top tier mil-spec forged upper receiver, using a nitrided steel gas block as opposed to phosphate or aluminum, quality American Made M-LOK handguards and one of the nicest nitrided A2s you’ll find anywhere. This upper also includes the wildly popular NBS Premium Series 16″ .223 Wylde Barrel. This also means taking the time to ensure that the upper will function reliably. We use Permatex 242 on key components while using mil-spec AEROSHELL 33MS Anti-Seize grease on the properly torqued barrel nut and muzzle device.
Bottom line is this: you hear all the time about guys buying a budget upper and it not lasting or having to send it back because of some hardware defect or other issue caused by a careless assembly process. That is why we use top tier components and assemble each unit to the highest standard of quality. We want your upper to function flawlessly out of the box. In fact, we guarantee it will.
Buy with confidence, this upper is backed by our 30 day satisfaction guarantee. Buy it, run it, abuse it, and if you aren’t satisfied you can send it back for a full refund.
Handguard style may vary from batch to batch

Honest 1/2 upper
Paired this with an existing lower, added 3.5 drop in trigger, upgraded stock and grip and a light and a Primary Arms 1-6 scope with far forward primary arms mount, that is it. A rather eco/reasonable build. Was hoping it would function and shot 2.5 moa. Well tried it with 62 and 55 grain ammo, several different brands. (BTW the 1/8 is the way to go to shoot 90 percent of the 223/556 ammo you will find on the shelf and can afford to shoot. Who can afford to shoot the heavy stuff anyway?) Went to the range which is maxed at 90 yards, so my groups were 90 yards, that being said it shot everything I put in it like a laser beam. Ran flawless from round one with several different mags. It seems to shoot 55 and 62 grain about the same, both under 1 inch at 90 yards with no problem. Used a lot of Defender ammo, which is also great for the money. I am planning on some coyote thinning so I needed some hunting ammo. Ought some sp 55 grain Hordany and printed several 1/2 groups. (I was shooting prone off a bag). This upper will shoot! I am so happy with it and for the price, I am stoked. Highly recommend this upper and the 1/8 twist with the Wylde chamber. I still don't know why anyone who shoots 55 and or 62 grain most of the time would go with the 1/7. Hoping to see more 1/8 uppers in the future because this is why I bought from here to be honest. PSA is almost all 1/7. That being said I am glad I did and I am so satisfied with my purchase from here, new loyal customer.
USVery well build and Good Price!
Smooth edges. Works with Lowers Troy and Smith & Wesson. Also, I use NBS .223/5.56 Bolt Carrier Group - Black Nitride and NBS Enhanced AR-15 Mil-Spec Charging Handle. Good Quality Parts and Price!

USNBS and ar15discounts.com strike again!
I have built several of these now and am consistently amazed at the quality of NBS parts and the Ar15discounts.com service. Every upper is carefully disassembled for a custom Cerakote job so it's easy to inspect the quality of factory assembly. Everything is always torqued properly, and greased exactly as described. NBS is now my go to supplier for AR parts.
