Ergo 49883PK WedgeOrange for AR-Platform - 3 Pack
- Model:
- Wedge
The Ergo WedgeOrange for AR-Platform 3-pack is a set of precision shims designed to tighten up the fit between your AR upper and lower receiver. If you've noticed play or rocking between the two halves of your rifle, these wedges slip into the gap and take up that slack—resulting in a more rigid, stable platform for shooting. Whether you're fine-tuning a new build or troubleshooting an older rifle, having a few wedges on hand means you can dial in your receiver fit without waiting for specialized parts or gunsmithing.
Each wedge is trimable, so you can customize the fit to your specific receiver tolerances. This makes the WedgeOrange pack flexible across different AR variants and builds—just shave or sand them to the thickness you need. Installation is a straightforward DIY job: remove the bolt carrier group and charging handle, separate the upper and lower, position the wedge in the appropriate gap, and reassemble. No special tools required, and the improvement in handling and accuracy feedback at the range is immediately noticeable.
The orange color makes these wedges easy to spot during disassembly and cleanup, and it signals to anyone handling the rifle that receiver shims are in place. If you're serious about AR precision or simply tired of that slight receiver wobble, the WedgeOrange 3-pack gives you enough material to get your build tight and keep spares in your range bag.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these wedges work on all AR-platform rifles?
The WedgeOrange wedges are designed for AR-platform rifles and fit between the upper and lower receiver. Since AR receivers vary slightly in tolerance and finish, you may need to trim the wedges to achieve the optimal fit on your specific rifle.
How do I install the wedges?
Installation is straightforward: remove the bolt carrier group and charging handle, separate your upper and lower receiver, position the wedge in the gap (typically at the front or rear depending on where your receiver has play), and reassemble. The wedge should take up the slack without forcing the receivers together.
Why does the orange color matter?
The bright orange finish makes the wedges easy to spot during disassembly and cleaning, and serves as a visual reminder that receiver shims are installed on that rifle.
What if the wedge doesn't fit perfectly?
Each wedge is trimable, so you can sand or shave it down to fit your receiver's specific gap. This flexibility is one of the key advantages of the product—you're not locked into a single thickness.
