Overview
The Phoenix 6ARC Premium Complete Upper is the upper half of Next Level Armament's Phoenix 6ARC Premium rifle, sold to drop onto an existing AR-15 lower. It is built on the Ascend Phoenix billet upper and chambered in 6mm ARC, the cartridge Hornady developed for the AR-15 to reach farther than 5.56 with manageable recoil.
The barrel is an 18-inch Helix 6 carbon fiber barrel, lighter than a steel barrel of the same contour, paired with Next Level's DLC bolt carrier group, its Scythe ambidextrous charging handle, an NLA handguard, and an NLA muzzle device. Each one is custom built to order, so Next Level asks for about 10 days before shipping. Use 6mm ARC magazines in the lower.
