Hill Billy's Review of Aero Precision M5 24in 6.5 Creedmoor SS Complete Upper Receiver with Flash Hider w/ ATLAS S-ONE Handguard

I would of given this 5 stars but and with no fault to Optics planet when Aero Precision assembled the gas tube to the gas block they missed the hole with the pin causing it to get jammed into my BCG and pulled the tube out of the block when I finally got the bolt open. I thought I broke the pin until I examined it. Instead of sending it back in and having to wait a long time to get it back I did remove the pin and reassemble it. The gas tube is a little mushroomed now where it was stuck but doesn’t seem to effect it mechanically for now.
The only other thing I can recommend is that when using it the first time run it wet!!! ( lots of oil)
Until it breaks in from what I’ve read and had myself there is a problem with short cycling. I thought it was undergassed since I had problems out the gate with the gas block but glad I googled the problem before getting new parts. It took almost dipping the BCG in oil to get it to run through a magazine but ran smoothly and I’m guessing once it breaks in a little more it will be great.
Pros:
  • Cheaper than getting all the parts and building yourself.
Cons:
  • Oily to start (Knicknamed sloppy Betty)
Would Recommend: Yes
