Luth-AR A2 Stripped Upper Receiver with Integrated Carry Handle - UR-A2-A - UPC 812058032656
Product Description
The Luth-AR A2 Stripped Upper Receiver with Integrated Carry Handle (UR-A2-A) is a classic, military-spec upper receiver housing engineered for shooters building authentic M16A2, retro AR-15, or service rifle clone setups. Precision forged from ultra-durable 7075-T6 aluminum, this upper receiver features the iconic fixed carry handle design with integrated rear sight housing channels, providing vintage styling combined with modern manufacturing tolerances.
Finished in a durable Matte Black Mil-Spec Type III hardcoat anodizing, the UR-A2-A incorporates a shell deflector and forward assist housing boss. Machined to standard Mil-Spec dimensional tolerances, it accepts standard .223 Rem / 5.56x45mm NATO barrel extensions, M4 feed ramp barrel extension assemblies, and standard AR-15 lower receivers for smooth bolt carrier group cycling and lockup.
As a stripped unit, the UR-A2-A allows gunsmiths and AR builders to customize their build with their preferred A2 rear sight assembly, dust cover door kit, and forward assist hardware. Whether restoring a classic military rifle setup or assembling a rugged, retro iron-sight carbine, the Luth-AR UR-A2-A provides an exceptional foundation for your custom AR-15 build.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Fits all standard Mil-Spec AR-15 / M4 lower receivers. Chambered for .223 Rem / 5.56 NATO barrel assemblies. Note: This is a stripped upper receiver housing; it requires an A2 rear sight assembly, forward assist assembly, and ejection port dust cover door assembly for full operation.
- Verify the workspace is clean and all build components are verified safe before starting assembly.
- Install the A2 rear sight wheel, windage drum, sight aperture, and spring detents into the integrated carry handle housing.
- Install the forward assist pin and dust cover door hinge assembly before torquing your barrel nut to 30–80 ft-lbs using an upper receiver vise block.
