Midwest Industries .223 Wylde Upper Receiver 16" M-LOK

Midwest Industries Lightweight Upper Receiver Group

This is a complete, ready-to-mount upper receiver assembly designed for shooters who demand reliability without unnecessary weight. Built on a forged 7075-T6 aluminum receiver with hard coat anodizing, it delivers the durability expected from a serious rifle platform.

Barrel and Chambering

The 16" lightweight Melonite-finished barrel is chambered in .223 Wylde, a versatile cartridge that safely fires both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition. The 1:8 twist rate stabilizes a wide range of bullet weights, making this upper suitable for target shooting, hunting, and tactical applications. The barrel features M4 feedramps and a threaded 1/2x28 muzzle for suppressor compatibility or accessory mounting.

Gas System and Handguard

A mid-length direct impingement gas system provides reliable cycling with moderate recoil impulse. The .625" gas block diameter accepts standard components. The 14" Combat Series M-LOK handguard offers modern mounting flexibility for lights, lasers, and other tactical accessories while keeping the overall package compact and maneuverable.

Practical Specifications
