Anderson Manufacturing AM-15 Dissipator Upper Receiver with BCG and Charging Handle

The AM-15 Dissipator Upper Receiver by Anderson is a modern take on a classic, offering an enhanced shooting experience for AR-15 enthusiasts. Imagine what would have happened if the original chopped M16 had made it all the way to the A4 generation. Well, Anderson has answered that question with the AM-15 Dissipator.

This upper receiver is designed to deliver a very smooth recoil impulse and optimal sight radius, giving you improved accuracy and control. It combines the benefits of a rifle-length gas system with a lighter and more compact package, making it ideal for a variety of shooting applications.

Colt originated this design with the Model 605, but Bushmaster called it the Dissipator due to using heavier barrels compared to the pencil barrels used in most .223 rifles at the time and heat-mitigating handguards. Some “Dissipator” models were used in Vietnam when some Army Special Forces cut down their issued M16s for better maneuverability in dense jungles.

One of the standout features of the AM-15 Dissipator Upper is its 16-inch barrel with a low-profile gas block. This setup not only ensures excellent accuracy but also enhances the overall reliability of the firearm. Whether you are a competitive shooter looking for an edge or a weekend plinker looking for a reliable and fun firearm, the AM-15 Dissipator Upper is a great choice for your AR-15 platform.

Upgrade your AR-15 with the AM-15 Dissipator Upper Receiver and experience improved ergonomics, enhanced accuracy, and reliable performance. Get ready to take your shooting skills to the next level with this top-notch upper receiver from Anderson.
