excellent (24/06/2016)

These are really nice. Barrel nut torqued fine and the charging handle, bcg operate fine with the additional FDE finish. Matches up to an Anderson lower as good as any. Hardware is of sound quality. Color doesn't match Magpul or sig perfectly, not sure who is to blame. I have 60 rounds through it with no visible wear inside.

Fits like a glove (15/08/2017)

Fit and finish excellent. Can't asked for better. No T markings ? I could care less. Excellent price for a cerakote upper. High quality product at a great price .every aero product I've ever purchased has been excellent. They never have disappointed me.

Excellent fit on CMMG lower (18/08/2015)

I recently installed a 300 AAC barrel on an older CMMG upper and mated it with a brand new CMMG lower. The fit was pretty sloppy between the upper and lower so I decided to invest in this Aero Precision upper hoping for a better fit. As soon as it arrived I checked it for fit with the CMMG lower and found it to be a very snug fit with only a minuscule amount of lateral movement at the pivot point and an almost perfect fit between receivers when locked at the take down point. The finish of this upper matches the lower without any noticeable differences in color shade. Prior to installing the barrel I lapped the Aero upper with Brownell's upper receiver lapping tool and then installed the barrel. Very happy with the fit and looks of this upper.

Great receiver (08/10/2015)

I purchased this for a 6.5 Grendel build and it works great. They were on sale, otherwise I would have went my usual route of either DPMS or YHM uppers.

Barrel slides in freely without having to work it over, but there isn't a whole bunch of play in it. You could see a bit tighter, but it sure wasn't loose. All the parts are assembled correctly and no modifications were needed.

This was mated to a DPMS lower that came off of an AP4, and there was absolutely no issues. Once lubed, the BCG moved freely and did not need to be cycled 100+ times to wear down the finish.

Overall, this is a great receiver for the money. I will purchase these again if they are prcied the same.

Excellent fit and finish (11/03/2016)

Fits perfectly with the Aero lower receiver, which fits perfectly with a DPMS upper. So it should fit any well made lower. The finish is fantastic and the barrel was a snug fit. I also have the Aero optic mount witch I really like as well.

Very Happy (04/09/2016)

Great fit with Anderson lower. FYI it has a large American Flag on the top that is not in the pic but it gets covered by rear backup sight.

Good product but bad assembly (10/12/2016)

Bought one of these to assemble a buddies AR-15. Spent a little extra money on this one because it came per-assembled. when it came today I didn't think twice and I put the barrel and hand-guard on right away. When I functioned checked it I realized that the dust cover spring was not on correctly. This required me to disassemble the entire upper to get the dust cover off and put on correctly, not the end of the world but really annoying when I paid to have it pre installed. hopefully this was just an oops during the assembly.

good quality and price (19/08/2017)

Mates perfectly with an Aero lower and the two become a perfect basis for a .300 blackout build.

Good, Not Excellent (26/08/2017)

This is a solid 3. The only way it would get a 5 is if it fit better. I checked flimsy construction because I couldn't think of anything else to put the fact the it's rather lose.

I bought two to mate with a couple of M&P lowers as the price was only 75 at the time. I share the one reviewer complaint that one of them had the dust cover assembled correctly, and I had to break down the whole upper to fix it. Otherwise, the forward assist was installed correctly, and everything I put on it fit correctly. It's just too darn loose. Lose to the point that I had to put an O-Ring on both of them, as the amount of looseness gave me concern with wearing out my takedown and pivot pen holes. #41 1/16 o rings to be exact. To take 99% of the wobble out of the Midwest industries upper, I use an old ring that is about 1/8 the size of that. There was so much wobble that if I don't put maximum pressure on it, the crosshair wiggles back and forth when shooting from my bipod.

The upper that came with the performance center lower has almost no wiggle without an o ring. The 15t upper also had about 75 percent less wobble than this one. I'd say if it's less than a hundred and you don't plan on using it with a scope or have a problem with o rings and accuwedges then go for it, otherwise my experience suggest spend a little extra and you might get a tighter for from a brand that advertises a tighter fit or from a bullet upper.

Nice, but issue with fitting Aero lower (19/07/2018)

I really like Aero products for the value. This is a no frills assembled upper. Here's the problem... it wouldn't fit a recently purchased standard Aero lower. The receivers mate only with extra force applied as the rear takedown lug is very snug. The rear takedown pin would not close at all. Not even budge from the open position. I used a Strike Industries enhanced LPK. A gen 1 Noveske lower also didn't fit.

Luckily, I had a spare Spike's punisher lower that fit perfectly.
