AR15 Parts - A deep dive into your rifle's components
You've just acquired an AR15 and are curious to know what it does. Well, you're in luck! Peeling back the layers will help you to understand what makes up this iconic gun. Read more now on AR15 Parts



Let's be clear: this isn't rocket-science, but it may feel like a puzzle to a newbie. Once you become familiar with AR15 Parts it will be just like playing your favorite videogame.


The Upper Receiver: The Brain Box


Start with the upper receiver. Consider the upper receiver as your rifle's brain. This is where the action happens--literally. The barrel, the bolt carrier group (BCG), as well as the charging handle are all housed in this compartment. The barrel is where the bullets leave. The BCG? The engine is like that. And the charging handle? Well, it's akin to pulling the string on a lawnmower to get things started.


The Lower Receiver: the Heart of the Matter


Now, let's chat about the lower receiver. This part doesn't get as much glam, but it's the real heart of your AR15. This is where the magazine well, trigger and buttstock are located. The trigger is the direct link to action. You can start by popping in a new magazine in the magazine well. Buttstock? The gun is resting on the shoulder.


Handguard and Rail Systems: The Swiss Army Knife


Have you ever heard of a Handguard? It's a Swiss Army Knife attached to the barrel. It protects your hands from the barrel's heat and offers you a spot to mount accessories. Picatinny rails, M-Lok rails, or KeyMod Rails? These are all terms used to describe different mounting systems that can be used for lasers, lights, grips, etc.


Gas System: The Middleman


Gas is also used in your rifle to fire the bullet. When you fire, gases push the bullet out of the barrel, but they're also redirected to cycle the BCG. It's like getting two birds with one stone--moving the bullet and readying the gun for the next shot.


Look, we're not talking ultra-obsessive cleaning routines, but you do need to keep your AR15 in good shape. A dirty rifle is like trying to drive a car with mud all over the windshield--not ideal. Keep it lubed and free of gunk, and it'll treat you well.
