Larue Tactical LT007 Stripped Upper Receiver Aluminum for AR-15

The Larue Tactical LT007 Stripped Upper Receiver Aluminum for AR-15 is the foundation component serious builders and gunsmiths rely on when constructing or upgrading a rifle platform. This upper receiver serves as the serialized backbone of your AR-15, housing the bolt carrier group, charging handle, and forward assist while providing the critical mounting surface for your handguard and optics rail. Whether you're building a precision rifle, duty weapon, or tactical carbine, a quality stripped upper receiver is non-negotiable for reliability and longevity.

Larue Tactical's LT007 is machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, the same material spec found in combat-proven rifle platforms used by law enforcement and military units. The stripped configuration means you receive only the upper receiver itself—no internals—giving you complete control over your component selection and allowing customization to exact specifications. At 0.84 pounds and compact in profile (8.8 x 4.4 x 2.5 inches), this receiver balances structural rigidity with minimal weight, critical for operators who demand responsive handling without sacrificing durability during extended field use.

This upper receiver is ideal for experienced AR-15 builders, armorer shops, and those building duty or tactical rifles who demand mil-spec quality without OEM bloat. Installation requires a properly fitted lower receiver and professional assembly of internal components; novice builders should consult published build guides or seek professional gunsmithing. The LT007 pairs seamlessly with any standard AR-15 lower receiver and accepts all mil-spec bolt carrier groups, charging handles, and handguard systems, making it the versatile choice for builds ranging from 5.56 NATO to 6.5 Creedmoor or other caliber conversions.
