A quality upper assembly without cutting corners. This means starting with a top tier billet upper receiver, using a steel gas block as opposed to aluminum, and Dirty Bird M-LOK handguards. We use Permatex 242 on key components while using mil-spec AEROSHELL 33MS Anti-Seize grease on the properly torqued barrel nut and muzzle device. 300BLK is a great round for home defense and hunting. We wanted to maximize this by adding a flash can to direct all flash forward and make follow up shots easier. We wanted to reduce weight, so we included the Dirty Bird Gen 2 Handguard, which features a shaved top rail and M-LOK mounting slots on every side of the handguard. The Dirty Bird handguards have one of the most secure locking systems in the patent-pending ASAL locking system to ensure your handguard will not cant or have unwanted rotation. This also means taking the time to ensure that the upper will function reliably. When you are looking to build your next pistol upper, look no further than the new NBS 8.5″ 300BLK Pistol Upper.
Bottom line is this: you hear all the time about guys buying a budget upper and it not lasting or having to send it back because of some hardware defect or other issue caused by a careless assembly process. That is why we use top tier components and assemble each unit to the highest standard of quality. We want your upper to function flawlessly out of the box. In fact, we guarantee it will.
Buy with confidence, this upper is backed by our 30 day satisfaction guarantee. Buy it, run it, abuse it, and if you aren’t satisfied you can send it back for a full refund.
