PRO2A 18" 6.5 Grendel 1/8 Mid Length NR Side Charging Melonite M-LOK AR-15 Upper Kit
Product Overview
The PRO2A 18" 6.5 Grendel 1/8 Mid Length NR Side Charging Melonite M-LOK AR-15 Upper Kit provides an all-in-one rifle conversion package engineered to optimize mid-to-long-range ballistic dominance within a standard AR-15 chassis. Anchored by an 18-inch 4150 CMV barrel treated with an elite low-friction Melonite finish, this complete system unlocks the flat-shooting, high-energy potential of the 6.5 Grendel cartridge. Incorporating an premium Non-Reciprocating (NR) side-charging handle for rapid manual manipulation beneath large optics and bundled with a fully headspaced bolt carrier group and complete lower frame parts, this range-ready package drops seamlessly straight onto any mil-spec lower receiver framework.
Key Features
Non-Reciprocating Side Charging Billet Receiver: Manual side charging mechanism remains static during firing cycles, preventing structural interference with wide magnification target optics.
Heavy-Duty Melonite Barrel Defense: Liquid QPQ Nitride treatment maximizes land-and-groove core micro-hardness, defending against thermal throat erosion and environmental elements.
Precision 1/8 Button Rifling Twist: Specially optimized twist profile ensures uniform stabilization across the industry's most popular mid-to-heavy grain 6.5 Grendel projectiles.
Tuned Mid-Length Gas Configuration: Smoothly regulates internal pressures to extend bolt cycling extraction dwelling time, mitigating physical recoil climb and cyclic internal fatigue.
Complete Range-Ready Build Kit: Ships fully bundled with a tailored side-charging Bolt Carrier Group (BCG), slim free-float M-LOK rail system, full lower components tree, and stock assembly.
