Slick Side M4E1 Upper with Internal Barrel Nut

This Aero M4E1 Enhanced Upper eliminates the forward assist, and features a new method for supporting Aero’s Enhanced handguards. Rather than standard barrel nut threads, the enhanced upper has an internal barrel nut, and a separate handguard mounting platform. This unique method of separating barrel and handguard significantly reduces deflection when mounting laser modules to the handguard.

This upper receiver features the same enhanced body profile as the threaded M4E1 Upper Receiver, so it matches with M4E1 lowers. Aero forges these uppers from 7075-T6 Aluminum, precision machined to work withmil-spec AR15 parts, and includes the ejection port door pre-installed. The internal barrel nut and required wrench are also included.

Note: This upper receiver will not work with standard handguards. Use Aero Precision Enhanced or Quantum series handguards only.
