Description

DS-15 Typhoon 14.5 Upper

The DS-15 Typhoon Complete 5.56 Upper 14.5″ is hand-assembled and individually tested by Dark Storm Industries in Rockledge, Florida. Built around an aerospace-grade billet upper receiver, this complete upper combines advanced machining with premium American-made components for dependable, duty-grade performance.

At its core is a 14.5″ SOCOM-profile barrel manufactured from 4150 CMV steel and treated with a black nitride heat process to enhance corrosion resistance and service life. The barrel features a 1:7 twist rate and a carbine-length gas system to ensure reliable cycling with a wide range of 5.56 NATO ammunition.

The DS-15 Typhoon 14.5 Upper is outfitted with a color-matched 13″ Typhoon handguard and DSI’s Firestorm compensator for improved muzzle control. Partial ambidextrous controls—including an ambi charging handle and billet 90° safety selector—enhance ergonomics without compromising durability. A DSI Mil+ bolt carrier group completes the system for smooth, consistent operation.

Available in multiple Cerakote and anodized finishes and backed by a fully transferable lifetime warranty, the DS-15 Typhoon 14.5″ upper is built for shooters who demand performance and long-term reliability.
