Specifications

From the manufacturer

Due to Brownells' extraordinarily high quality standards, some of the AR-15 upper receivers produced for the company's line of BRN-16A1 retro rifles aren't up to spec. However, these Brownells Blemished M16 A1 upper receivers are still solid, quality components for AR fans looking for a bargain for their next AR build.

Each Brownells Blemished M16 A1 upper receiver meets all the requirements in terms of metal quality and specifications. The only difference separating these uppers from those found on the company's retro rifles is the finish color, which comes in a variety of finishes not quite up to spec, ranging from shiny green to dull, dark gray. Colors vary greatly between receivers.

Each Brownells Blemished M16 A1 upper receiver feature an original A1-style shape, having no shell deflector, an A1 rear-sight housing and period-correct contours for a carry handle. All standard AR-15 parts are compatible with the lower, and the design is correct for a number of period reproductions.
