Our billet upper is made locally in Phoenix, in our facility. We start off from a solid block of 6061 aluminum and CNC it down to spec. A billet is much harder and more consistent than forged. Forged has a tendency to crack and loosen through wear and tear over time, while billet will last 5x longer than a forged upper. We now include all of our uppers with super durable billet. We Type 3 hard coat anodize our aluminum to make it almost as hard as steel.
Our 5.56 16” Stainless Steel is made out of 416R Stainless steel. Our barrels have a 12 step process that helps set us apart from the competition. Most of our competitors only use 8 processes or use inferior stainless steel. The 416R is perfect for handling accuracy and durability, but don’t beat it up, stainless steel is not a load and dumps lots of ammo kind of barrel. Stainless steel will last 50,000 rounds, but you cannot let the barrel get too hot. It also can get better grouping over time, unlike our nitrided barrels that stay the same groupings for about 15,000 rounds average lifespan. Our 16” is better than most 20” barrels on the market. This shoots SUB-MOA out of the box and will get better groupings as time goes on if you a careful and don’t beat up the barrel. This barrel is great for short and long-range shooting up to 800 yards!
Our Barrel nuts are cut from bar stock carpenter 4140 steel and milled out, giving you a better than mil-spec hold for your barrel extension. We torque our barrel nuts 40-80 lbs onto our uppers, giving no chance of loosening while you shoot.
This handguard is made with 6061 aluminum extrusion that we CNC to meet our strict standards with top quality tooling. The top rail is Mil-spec, as are the M-LOK slots. This is a total length of 15” that leaves about an inch of the barrel (including the threads). We now use steel barrel nuts that can take greater torque specs while not adding too much weight. We pride ourselves on quality and safety, so our 15” handguards allow you to properly grip your rifle (or pistol) while still leaving lots of room to mount an angled grip, flashlight, laser, and a variety of accessories.

I bought one of the least expensive models they have (it was on sale ) received it today pinned to my JMT lower and ran 150 rounds through it with no failures! I know its only 150 rounds but all indications are; It is a very nice upper that functioned perfectly! The total package is very light weight and well built. I will definitely buy from these guys again!

Just wanted to update my previous review. After having spent some time with this upper I am happy to report that I think this upper is better than advertised. I have some upper end ar’s with mid length gas systems and this one out performs them all it is softer shooting and as or more accurate than the others that I paid more money for. Veriforce builds a real nice upper for the money. I only shoot brass which is recommended for this upper and it is very accurate sub moa.

I put my first rounds through today. So far I am really impressed with the craftsmanship. Looks sharp, shoots even better. I look forward to testing it out after I put on better glass.
