TAPCO TAP22062 STRIPPED UPPER

The TAPCO TAP22062 stripped upper receiver is a precision-machined component engineered for custom AR-platform rifle builds, competitions, and tactical applications where component reliability matters. Stripped uppers serve as the foundation of any AR build, providing the critical receiver assembly that houses the bolt carrier group and charging handle while maintaining strict adherence to federal firearm regulations. This TAPCO offering is ideal for builders and gunsmiths who demand consistency and accuracy during assembly, whether constructing a duty rifle, precision carbine, or dedicated training platform.

TAPCO's manufacturing process produces receivers with tight tolerances and clean machining that accommodate modern AR accessories and upper assemblies without fit issues. The stripped configuration means this component arrives without a bolt carrier group, charging handle, or forward assist pre-installed, allowing builders complete control over parts selection and assembly specifications. Material composition and finish engineering ensure dimensional stability across temperature extremes and extended firing cycles—critical factors for law enforcement and military users who depend on zero retention and reliable operation under stress.

This component is compatible with standard AR-15 and modern sporting rifle builds, making it suitable for tactical professionals, competitive shooters, and builders transitioning from factory rifles to custom configurations. Installation requires proper assembly tools, receiver extension, and familiarity with AR platform mechanics—gunsmiths and experienced builders will find this upper receiver straightforward to integrate into complete builds. Weighing 0.72 lbs and measuring 10.6 inches in length, the TAP22062 maintains balanced ergonomics while delivering the rigidity necessary for consistent accuracy in duty and competition environments.
