Like other Brownells BRN-180 upper receiver assemblies, the 350 Legend version is also compatible with mil-spec AR lower receivers, is gas operated with a short stroke piston, has a reciprocating charging handle and dual recoil springs. The bolt carrier group cycles within the dimensions of the upper receiver allowing to have a folding stock and shoot the gun with the stock folded. The 16″ lightweight contour barrels of BRN-180 350 Legend uppers are nitrided, have a 1:16″ twist rate, 1/2×28 threaded muzzles and come with thread protectors installed. The gas system is optimized for the 350 Legend cartridge and there is a slot cut in the M-LOK handguard that provides access to the adjustable gas block. The feed ramps are redesigned to work reliably with the 350 Legend cartridge and Brownells recommend using dedicated 350 Legend magazines. The overall weight of the Brownells BRN-180 upper receiver assembly is 4.375 lbs.
