If you don’t already know, we offer a wide variety of parts to help you add a competitive edge to your firearm while also keeping it aesthetically pleasing. These parts include everything from optics and scopes to upper and lower build kits. However, our brand new Side Charging Billet Upper Receiver is one piece that stands out among the rest.

Today, we introduce you to our “Sidecar” AR-15 billet side charging upper receiver. Let’s discuss why side charging is beneficial, why ambidextrous parts are useful, and why you might be interested in this particular part.

Benefits of a Side Charging AR-15

It Looks and Feels Unique

Rule number 1: Side chargers are just awesome. They look cool, they're different from the norm, and they nod to other beloved firearms like MP5s or M249s. But there are tactical benefits as well.

Improved Stock Compatibility

Modifying your stock is easier with a side charging design. Standard T-shaped charging handles limit stock types, especially those with enhanced or raised cheek pads. Side chargers solve this compatibility issue elegantly.

Better Control and Efficiency

Side chargers allow easier clearing of jams and recharging without repositioning your firearm or head, letting you maintain focus on the target. Increased efficiency is always a win, especially in tactical scenarios.

Ambidextrous Features

Now that we understand the tactical benefits of side charging, let’s discuss the ambidextrous advantages. This upper receiver offers a dual-side charging system that lets you charge from whichever side is most convenient or comfortable.

The AR-15 platform supports ambidextrous upgrades for various components: safety selector, bolt release, magazine release, and more. This upper receiver fits right in, enhancing user flexibility and speed.

Why You Want This One

Still not convinced? Here’s more. The receiver is hard coat anodized, increasing durability through a thicker oxide layer. It also includes a full Picatinny top rail for installing iron sights or additional optics.

It lacks a forward assist and dust door, making both sides smooth and flat for a streamlined, low-profile build. A practical and sleek design combined with performance.

• .223 Remington
