Faxon X-Tra Lite AR-15 Stripped Receiver Set OD green FF-15-RECEIVERSET-02-ODG

The Faxon X-TRA Lite AR15 Receiver Set in OD Green Cerakote® is the foundation for lightweight builds that still demand hard-use durability, precise fitment, and clean, professional aesthetics. Built from 7075-T6 forged aluminum and trued in-house by Faxon Firearms in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio, this set uses proven forged receiver geometry while removing unnecessary mass and tightening tolerances where it matters.

At just 0.96 lbs (15.36 oz) combined with the ejection port and dust cover installed, the X-TRA Lite Receiver Set is 2.08 ounces lighter than the standard forged receiver set. Purposeful skeletonization, Faxon heritage “X” milling, and an engineered feature set deliver weight savings without sacrificing the structural integrity expected from a precision American manufacturer.

The upper receiver features a honed inner bore for smooth bolt carrier operation, a skeletonized Picatinny rail with manually engraved T-marks, and a deleted forward assist for reduced weight and simplified function. The lower receiver includes a Faxon “X” skeletonized magwell to further reduce weight while maintaining reliable magazine insertion and consistent ergonomics. The OD Green Cerakote® finish provides a durable, corrosion-resistant coating with a distinct, build-ready appearance.

Each set is inspected and trued by Faxon technicians to ensure consistent upper-to-lower alignment and confident fitment. Whether building a lightweight duty-style carbine, a competition rifle, or a premium custom AR, the X-TRA Lite Receiver Set delivers an ideal balance of weight reduction, precision, and refined styling.
