Purchased this upper for my 300 Blackout pistol build and received it within 10 days of ordering (great free shipping by Optics Planet as ususal!). I haven't completed the build yet, but this is my second Aero purchase (first one was a 556 build) and am very impressed with the new Atlas R-1 handguard, as it's smaller than their previous handguard and feels much better in my hand, as well as shaving some weight off the finished gun. I'm looking forward to running this gun fully suppressed with subsonic ammo.

For the price (especially with any discount), this upper is excellent. The order shipped quickly, and was received not 5 days after purchase (including a weekend). All machining for the individual parts was correct, and I did not find any defects or imperfections. 500 rounds in and I’m quite satisfied with this complete upper from Aero Precision.

I wanted this style upper receiver for a while now, I browsed so quickly and just read “complete upper receiver” that I just bought it.
To my surprise no charging handle or BCG, for the price it should’ve been included.

I haven’t shot this yet, but expecting great things. One issue I’ve noticed, when assembling it requires a little bit of finagling and pressure to get it on/off your lower. My lower is also an AP lower. Not a major issue, but could be easier since it’s the same brand.

Good build quality, shoots great right away. Shot both subsonic and supersonic ammo without fail. It’s only 25 yards, but subsonic ammo grouped into one hole.

I have several AERO uppers and all work great. I prefer to buy completes as it typically save money and time. The fit and finish is great and I really like not having continuous top rail as it’s easier to get a grip IMO. I’ll buy AERO again and from Optice Planet. In stock and fast shipping. Win, win in my books.

Finally got a chance to run this upper through a range day. After 200 rounds, I only had one hiccup (a bolt override!). Otherwise it functioned flawlessly. Build quality is solid. It ran supers and subs without issue. For the price I paid, I feel like I received a good vaue.
Pros:
- good price
- Good build quality
- Decent Accuracy
- No issues with a suppressor
Best Used for:
- Target shooting
- Home defense
Would recommend: Yes

Purchased to mate to an Aero Precision M4E1 lower also in FDE. FYI, with the cerakote, the takedown pins are really tight. Will need a punch to take down. Reading online, seems like a common issue and will work itself out will use. So be advised, nothing to worry about. Love the look.

Added the aero pro BCG, and a radian raptor. Ran 125, 147, and 200 supers to check it out. Worked well, finish and assembly was good. Everything you can ask for at the price point. would buy it again after using it, nice compact package.

Quite simply one of the best uppers you can find for the cost you pay. I’ve used many other companies and you can spend over $1000 for similar products. I’ll never spend that kind of money again because Aero is the right product for the right price. I find that most of the bad product reviews are written by people who truly don’t know how to put things together.
