Identify?

[GStephen]

is there any way to identify this upper?  It has no marks of any kind on it.  My grandson got it for me and was told it is aero precision.  I am pretty sure it would have their logo if it was.  Do any diamond backs have the dpms style curve back end?

Definitely not an Aero.  But it does appear to have a Diamondback BCG in it.  Everything on Diamondback's site has the AR10 slant back.

Note the little A above the forward assist and the position of the forward assist itself.

Yes, I agree it doesn’t resemble the Aero at all and I thought all of them have the A logo on them. And I also saw that the DB’s  all seemed to be the armalite slant instead of dpms curve. The reason I was trying to find out is that I ended up with two 308s and if I try to sell it, would like to know the brand. I have it on an aero lower that I purchased separately.

That's a DPMS LR-308 upper receiver - just the receiver.  100% positive on that.  It's extruded and machined, and there isn't any other one like it, with those lines.  The rest of the parts - no way to tell on the barrel, unless you can find marks/stamps in it, same with the rail. 

You can measure the tang on the back of it and easily determine if it's high profile or low profile.

I love seeing this.  Proves that Aero M5 receivers pin to DPMS LR-308 receivers.  I've stated that for years here, because I have both, and know they pin together and work together, but people have called that into question in the past.  Now, like then, I just tell them to suck it...  

 

Great pic, man.
