The AR-15 rifle is an extraordinarily modular rifle. You can switch out, replace, or upgrade virtually any part of it. In most cases, you don't even need a gunsmith, just the accessory or parts kit and a few tools, and in some cases, you don't even need the tools!
A few of the more common AR parts that get swapped around include what we've linked above and listed below:
- Trigger
- Bolt carrier group (BCG)
- Various lower parts (if not the entire lower receiver)
- Various upper receiver parts (if not the entire upper receiver)
- Barrel
- Gas block
- Ambi switch (ambidextrous safety selector)
- Muzzle device
You can also switch out AR 15 sights, pistol grip, bolt catch, and even the trigger guard.

Some AR15 accessories and rifle upgrades can be used across numerous platforms: carbine, PCC, AR pistol, PDW, you name it. This Dead Air Silencers "Primal" suppressor (from Dead Air Armament) can certainly be attached to something small...but it's rated for big calibers like the .458 SOCOM and .338 Lapua, too.
