PRO2A 10.5" 40 S&W 1/16 Pistol Caliber NR Side Charging Melonite M-LOK Upper

Description

The Pro2A Tactical 10.5-inch .40 S&W Non-Reciprocating (NR) Side Charging Complete Upper Receiver assembly balances exceptional muzzle velocity with optimized handling speed on the AR-40 platform. Hand-assembled and quality verified in Georgia, this system upgrades weapon control by replacing the traditional rear charging handle with an advanced, static side-charger mechanism. Utilizing an extended 10.5-inch Melonite barrel calibrated to squeeze excellent velocity thresholds and accuracy out of standard defensive and training loads, it provides a premium drop-in solution for home defense configurations, personal defense weapons, or compact truck guns.

Key Features

Non-Reciprocating Side Charging: Enhances deployment ergonomics with a left-side charging handle that stays static while cycling, preventing optics obstruction and knuckle interference.
Extended 10.5" Barrel Ballistics: Maximizes the powder burn efficiency of the .40 S&W cartridge to unlock higher velocity thresholds and improved downrange accuracy while retaining compact weapon control.
Straight Blowback Reliability: Engineered completely without gas blocks or gas tubes, dropping complex wear points to guarantee steady feeding and extraction cycles with heavy loads.
Premium Melonite Hardness: The 4150 steel barrel is treated inside and out with an ultra-hard Melonite finish, providing extreme corrosion resistance and an easily cleaned bore surface.

Why Choose This Product?

Stepping up to a side-charging layout dramatically changes operational speed and leverage on hard-hitting pistol-caliber platforms where frame real estate is limited.

Engineered with a revised feed cone optimized for flat-nose target rounds and high-expansion defense loads alike, it eliminates feeding hiccups natively. It is the definitive choice for operators searching for custom-tier rigidity and ultimate portable stopping power.
