Fernando's Review of Spikes Tactical 5.56 Midlength Cold Hammer Forged 16in Upper Receiver

Shot about 100 rounds through this upper yesterday. Ran smooth and without hickups. Ammo used was Frontier and Tula. In my previous review I noted the QC issues I observed. Most notable was the very weak staking job on the bcg. I did not see any issues with the first hundred rounds and will monitor the gas key for looseness. I would definitely recommend this upper despite the other mostly cosmetic QC issues. If you buy this upper check your BCG for proper staking. I bought an Aero BCG as a backup. I will say that I would like to see Spikes improve their overall quality control. Just do it Spikes!!! Great job to Optics Planet on price and shipping!!!
Pros:
  • Barrel quality and function
Cons:
  • QC is slightly lacking, but not enough to discourage me from buying more of these as the issues are very easily fixed
  • QC is slightly lacking but not discouraging me from recommending this product
Best Used for:
  • Home defense , practice, recreation
Would Recommend: Yes
