Description
The Yankee Hill Machine YHM-110 is a stripped A3 flat top upper receiver built for anyone putting together an AR-15 from the ground up. It starts life as forged 7075-T6 aluminum, gets machined 100% in house at YHM, and wears a hardcoat anodized matte black finish done to military specifications or better. The flat top Picatinny rail up top gives you a clean mounting surface for optics, red dots, or backup irons, so you're not locked into any one sighting setup.
What Sets the YHM-110 Upper Apart
A couple of details make this receiver worth a look over the bargain-bin options. It comes with M4-style feed ramps and "T" markings machined into the rail, which helps keep your ammo running smoothly from a proper barrel extension. The inside is treated with a dry film lube, so the bolt carrier group has a slick surface to ride on right out of the gate. That kind of attention shows up when you're actually running the gun.
Building on the YHM Flat Top Receiver
This is a stripped upper, so it's a blank canvas. It accepts standard AR-15 upper receiver parts like a dust cover and forward assist, and it drops onto any mil-spec lower without a fight. To get it up and running you'll want to add a dust cover, forward assist, charging handle, barrel, gas system, handguard, muzzle device, and a bolt carrier group. If you already run YHM handguards or other parts, everything lines up the way it should.
Yankee Hill has been turning out AR-15 uppers for a long time, and the YHM-110 reflects that experience. It's a straightforward, well-made piece for a first build or a spare that you know will fit and function when you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What parts do I need to finish the YHM-110 stripped upper?
Since this is a stripped upper, it ships as the bare receiver only. To complete it you'll need a dust cover (port door), forward assist, charging handle, barrel, gas block and gas tube, handguard, muzzle device, and a bolt carrier group. Once those are installed, it pins right onto a lower to make a running rifle.
Will the YHM-110 upper fit a standard mil-spec lower receiver?
Yes. The YHM-110 is built to mil-spec dimensions and is made to fit and function with any standard AR-15 lower receiver. It also accepts standard upper receiver parts, so your dust cover and forward assist will drop right in.
What are the M4 feed ramps and T-markings for?
The M4-style feed ramps are cut wider and lower to help feed rounds more reliably when paired with a matching M4-ramped barrel extension. The "T" markings on the rail are a reference standard that lets you index optics and mounts to the same spot every time you remount them.
Is the YHM-110 forged or billet aluminum?
This YHM-110 is made from forged 7075-T6 aluminum, which is the traditional and proven material for AR-15 uppers. Yankee Hill machines it 100% in house and finishes it with a hardcoat anodized coating to military spec. If you're after the more stylized billet look, YHM offers a separate billet version.
