Hodge Defense AU-Mod 2 stripped upper receiver, C405 aluminum, NIR FDE Cerakote. New in box, never fitted. C405 is the alloy Hodge moved the Mod 2 to — lighter and stronger than the 7075 the rest of the industry forges. Critical dimensions held within ±.001", M4 feed ramps, Mil-Std 1913 rail, laser T-marked. The barrel seat bore is machined intentionally undersized. This upper requires thermal fitting to install a barrel — heat the receiver, seat the extension, let it contract — and that interference fit is why Hodge uppers shoot the way they do. No slop between extension and receiver, no accuracy walking off as the gun heats. The Army purchased a small number of AU-Mod 2s and had them evaluated by Picatinny Arsenal and USASOC under a Soldier Enhancement Program initiative, used to inform the SOPMOD upper receiver group requirement. Not many receiver makers can point to that.
