The Wraithworks Billet Slick Side AR-15 Upper Receiver is a stripped upper machined from billet aluminum in a slick-side pattern, with no forward assist and no brass deflector (Wraithworks part no. WARP15-UP-A). Leaving those features off gives Wraithworks‘s upper a cleaner, lower-profile look and a smoother ejection port area than a standard forged mil-spec upper. It ships as a bare receiver in black, without a bolt carrier group, charging handle or barrel, so it is the starting point for a custom build rather than a finished assembly. For a builder planning a minimalist AR-15 upper, it is a clean foundation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What else do I need to finish this upper? It is a stripped receiver only, so you add a barrel, a bolt carrier group, a charging handle and the rest of the upper parts.

Does it have a forward assist or a brass deflector? No. The slick-side design leaves off both, which gives the receiver its clean profile.
