Threaded Bolt Catch Roll Pin – Allows for simple installation of the bolt catch and virtually eliminates the chance to damage the finish during installation (pin included).

This provides a tight fit with any standard AR15 upper receiver. Threaded Takedown Pin Detent Recess – Allows user to easily install the Takedown Pin detent and spring with the use of a 4-40 set screw (no more launching detents across the room).

Grey Ghost Precision MKII Billet AR-10 Receiver Set

At the end of the day, there’s nothing wrong with MIL-SPEC. It gets the job done, after all. Still, why would you settle for the bare minimum acceptable standard when you could elevate your build with something better? The MKII GGP-S series receiver set is just what you’re looking for. Precision machined to exacting tolerances with a host of upgrades over standard receivers, the GGP MKII Billet AR-10 receiver set is the ideal way to start your build. Features: DPMS high profile Functions with nearly all DPMS pattern large frame parts Precision machined to within +/- 0.001″ tolerances Cut from high strength 7075-T6 aluminum billet Hardcoat anodized black finish with 60 Rockwell surface hardness Integrated ambidextrous bolt release Flared magazine well for faster reloads Pictographic Fire and Safe indicators Multi-caliber lower marking Integral trigger guard Threaded takedown pin hole with set screw Threaded bolt catch pin Nylon-tipped receiver tension screw A proper MIL-SPEC lower receiver’s dimensions can vary over .005″ or more from one receiver to the next. This is fine for a military rifle, but these tolerances can stack up, impacting parts compatibility, fit, and function, especially when using aftermarket components. By comparison, the MKII Billet AR-10 receiver set is machined to exceptionally tight +/- 0.001″ tolerances, allowing for incredible consistency. To further increase accuracy this lower features a nylon tipped tension screw, ensuring your upper and lower fit together without rattle. For enhanced convenience, the bolt catch and takedown pin are threaded for fast and easy installation. Even better, the lower is machined for an ambidextrous bolt catch release. With an extensive military and manufacturing background, and an impressive network of industry and shooting experts, Grey Ghost Precision has pushed on to create not just exceptional firearms and accessories, but make sure those products are accessible to shooters everywhere. They also fully stand behind their products, with a limited lifetime guarantee!
