AR-15 Slick-Side Billet Upper Receiver
Simple. Clean. Affordable.
Our Slick-Side upper omits the traditional forward assist, shell deflector and dust cover for a clean and simple addition to any AR-15 build. Our Slick-Side upper is precisely machined from premium, billet 6061 aluminum to ensure the tightest tolerances, in many cases, exceeding mil-spec requirements. Compatible with both forged and billet lower receivers as well as most types of fore-ends and quad rails. Our Slick-Side is not intended as an exact match to our 6061 80% lower; they are compatible, though, and frequently purchased together.
Weight 6.1oz
Please note - while many of our customers enjoy the look and simplicity of the "as machined" aluminum, this finish is intended to be completed by the end user; therefore, machining marks may be visible. Applying a wear resistant coating (Cerakote or similar) to as-machined uppers prior to use achieves final fitment and provides a barrier to resist rapid wear that will otherwise occur.
Compliance with all federal and local laws is YOUR responsibility.
Please allow 1-2 weeks for Cerakote

Definitely great to check out
I’m not one to write reviews often, but definitely give Venom a try - I’d recommend the slick side upper for both a custom look to a build and/or a cost saving method (no need to buy a dust cover or fwd assist ($10-20), in a way this upper partially pays for itself ;). I typically do forged instead of biller, but these have some unique features you wouldn’t get on forged like the cutout over the charging handle area. I haven’t attempted this, but I wonder if on supp shooting it might help direct the gas from venting backwards. Anyway I’ve seen videos of this shop on YouTube etc and it seems like a great operation with good values and interesting innovations to some products. I hope to order more in the future.
