Questions & Answers
Is this plug and play? Meaning does it come with the Bolt Carrier Group and the complete gas system? Can it be assembled to a lower and ready to fire?

"Plug and play" only applies to electronics toys. This assembly is NOT ready to fire when assembled to a complete lower assembly. First, you need to load a loaded mag and chamber a round. After that, it is complete AND ready to fire. You just won't hit anything without sights, optic, or scope installed.

6.5 Grendel Upper by Richard, Verified Owner, February 6, 2025

LaRue Upper by anon, Verified Owner, December 19, 2024
Bought this upper to put on a Aero lower I put together, when I got the upper everything looked good on it until I tried putting a round in it. Long story short the extractor on the bolt was messed up. This isn’t a big problem because LaRue offers 10...

awesome upper by Popo, Verified Owner, October 6, 2024
I was looking to build a 6.5 Grendel upper but after pricing everything out, it was cheaper to purchase this Larue. With the sub MOA guarantee it was a no brainer. Thank you Optics Planet for getting it to me in under a week, can’t wait to shoot it!!
