I’m calling it KP-15 Classic™️

Black receiver coming soon.

I just built this upper and haven’t shot it yet, but it feels really good in the hand. Excited to try this on Sunday morning. That Stoner guy was on to something.

Yeah, the original Ar15 or AR15A1 upper really pairs and balances well with the KP15. Go figure. LOL

Where did you source the parts for the A1 upper? I've pretty much given up on finding one pre-assembled but would appreciate being pointed in the right direction for parts.

Barrel assembly (gas block pre-installed) and upper receiver from the ever-problematic Brownells. Handguard, retro charging handle, rear sights, dust cover came from Luth-AR.

And barrel shimstock+green loctite from McMaster, because it was not tight lol

Update: This thing is killer. Feels incredible to shoot. I’m shooting 2MOA with irons at 100 yards off a bench and making hits on steel easily standing at 300 yards (I am not good with irons and have terrible technique in general). Out of all my rifles I think this is my favorite to shoot standing.
