Questions & Answers
Is the upper billet or forged aluminum Expert Answer

It is a mil-spec forged upper receiver.

by Jonathan D., Gear Expert, December 6, 2018
Do you ship this to California? Expert Answer

No, this upper would not have been capable of being shipped to CA. The muzzle device would not have been CA compliant.

Helpful Positive Review DDM4V7 Upper Receiver by Joe, June 17, 2018
