Dark Storm DS-15 Ambidextrous Stripped Lower Receiver

The Dark Storm DS-15 Ambidextrous Lower Receiver combines traditional forged AR-15 receiver construction with full ambidextrous controls and precision CNC machining.

Manufactured by Dark Storm Industries from domestic 7075-T6 forged aluminum, the DS-15 provides a durable receiver platform compatible with standard AR-15 components.

The receiver features ambidextrous magazine release and bolt catch/release controls, an open trigger guard configuration for aftermarket trigger guard installation, and a Mil-Spec M4 low rear shelf trigger pocket.

Full Ambidextrous Magazine and Bolt Controls

A defining feature of the DS-15 Ambidextrous Stripped Lower Receiver is its integrated ambidextrous control system.

The receiver provides:

• Ambidextrous bolt catch
• Ambidextrous bolt release
• Ambidextrous magazine release
• Controls accessible from either side of the receiver

This configuration accommodates users who prefer ambidextrous control placement.

Forged 7075-T6 Aluminum Construction

The DS-15 receiver is manufactured from domestic 7075-T6 forged aluminum and precision CNC-machined.

Key receiver characteristics include:

• American-produced forged aluminum

The receiver accommodates compatible aftermarket trigger guards, including Magpul and other AR-15 trigger guard options.

This configuration allows customers to select an appropriate compatible trigger guard separately.

Mil-Spec AR-15 Component Compatibility

The DS-15 Ambidextrous Lower Receiver is designed for compatibility with standard AR-15 platform components.

Its M4-style low rear shelf trigger pocket follows the manufacturer’s specified receiver design.
