The modular design of the Ar-15 rifles makes it very easy for you to quickly and affordably change your Ar-15 from a casual plinker to a precision varmit rifle, or practically any other use, simply by swapping out the upper receiver assembly. You can have as many separate upper receivers as you want and they will all work with your existing lower receiver assembly.
