A bufferless AR9 upper for more compact performance.
This side-charging AR9 features a side-charging bolt with integrated operating rod and recoil spring contained within the upper receiver.
Ditching the need for a buffer assembly, this custom 9mm AR upper includes an end cap that allows the bufferless upper to be installed on any AR9 lower, or any AR-15 lower equipped with a 9mm conversion block.
The end cap includes a vertical Picatinny rail for installing a folding stock. WARNING: Your AR9 must first be registered as a short-barreled rifle before installing a stock with this upper.
