Apache .223 Wylde assembled upper receiver with 18" barrel, A2 muzzle brake and a 12" Lightning handguard.



Caliber marked for user safety.



The upper is machined from 7075T aircraft grade aluminum and finished with type 3 hard coat anodizing as per military specifications.


The barrel is machined from 4150 high chromium, high vanadium steel, which is a better grade of steel than a standard gun barrel steel.  It is finished with a manganese phosphate coating as per military specifications for corrosion resistance. Due to supply chain issues, we reserve the right to substitute the nitro carburized finish ( an even more durable finish) if necessary.  These barrels have been manufactured to achieve sub MOA accuracy.  We have several customers reporting 3/4" groups at 100 yards right out of the box and 3/4" or better groups at 200 yards after recommended break in.


The 12" Lightning handguard features M-lock ports on both sides and the bottom to allow the user to mount M-lock dedicated accessories or picatinny rail sections.  The handguard is hard coat anodized for durability and good looks.   It also features a QD mounting point on each side near the upper receiver for those wanting to mount a sling in those areas.


Upon customer request, Lightning handguards, Bulldozer handguards, Skeleton handguards and Shark handguards may be substituted interchangeably, if they are available.



Like all Apache Armaments assembled upper receivers, only high quality parts are used and each unit is test fired to assure function.


Of course, it is covered by the Apache Armaments limited lifetime warranty.
