Can you use 7.62x51 in this upper/barrel?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Hunter, Gear Expert, from OH, United States, on March 16, 2022

Most firearms chambered in .308 Winchester can also shoot 7.62x51. However, to be safe I recommend contacting the manufacturer to confirm the Aero Precision M5 20in .308 CMV Complete Upper Receiver w/ ATLAS S-ONE Handguard can fire 7.62x51 safely.

Q

Hello. What buffer assembly do you recommend for this?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on February 07, 2022

The buffer assembly that I would recommend for this upper receiver is the Aero Precision M5 Buffer Kit. It was specifically designed to work with the M5 lower and upper. It includes the 308 buffer spring, 308 carbine buffer, end plate and lock nut, and a milspec buffer tube. You can find the Aero Precision Buffer Kit using the following link:

Will this upper work with an 80% ar15 308 lower?

Expert Answer

As long as it is a DPMS pattern 308 lower, the Aero Precision M5 20in .308 CMV Complete Upper Receiver should fit. It will not be compatible with a standard 5.56 AR15 lower.
