This video provides an in-depth review of the Genesis Arms GEN-12 SPM 10.5-inch 12 gauge shotgun upper receiver, designed to function with an AR-10 lower. The presenter, Roger Barrera of QVO Tactical, details the firearm's technical specifications, including its short recoil operation, chambering for 2.75 and 3-inch shells, and compatibility with DPMS 308 pattern lowers.

Building an AR-10 presents significant challenges due to a lack of standardization across different patterns, unlike the more universal AR-15 platform. Key issues include ensuring compatibility between upper and lower receivers, bolt carrier groups, and handguards, which often adhere to specific patterns like DPMS (LR308) or Armalite. Failure to match these components can lead to ill-fitting parts and wasted investment. The video emphasizes the need for meticulous research and careful part selection to avoid costly mistakes.
