PRO2A 13.7" 5.56 NATO 1/7 Mid Length NR Side Charging Melonite M-LOK AR-15 Upper with Flash Can
Product Overview
The PRO2A 13.7" 5.56 NATO Mid Length Barreled Upper Receiver with Flash Can brings structural ingenuity and high-performance ergonomics together into a sought-after compact footprint. Engineered around a premium Gibbz Arms G4 Non-Reciprocating (NR) side-charging billet receiver, this assembly eliminates the traditional rear charging constraint, delivering fast manual cycling independent of your optics workspace. Outfitted with a premium 13.7-inch Melonite barrel and a muzzle-mounted slimline linear flash can tucked beneath an extended free-float handguard, this upper drives concussive blast and audio resonance straight forward downrange.
Key Features
- Ultra-Compact Profile: 13.7-inch heavy target barrel configuration delivers massive close-range kinetic energy transfer from a highly maneuverable, lightweight footprint.
- Non-Reciprocating Side Charging Mechanics: Advanced side-charging handle design remains completely stationary during cyclic firing, eliminating moving external interferences and optimizing clearance for low-mounted optics and thermal scopes.
- QPQ Melonite Extreme Armor: Barrel bore, chamber, and exterior are fully liquid nitrocarburized to exceed mil-spec chrome lining in surface hardness, heat dissipation, and corrosion resistance.
- Slim Profile M-LOK Workspace: Features a continuous top Picatinny rail interface seamlessly blended into a 15-inch free-floating M-LOK handguard for rigid optics and accessory mounting stability.
