I mean, don't get me wrong, I enjoy top tier gear but I also love budget rifles...maybe more so the latter! Right when they start calling me a "Poor," I whip out pics of my snob buster! This bad boy is built on a coveted East Coast Gun lower made by LMT with a PSA upper, FN chrome lined barrel enhanced LPK, Toolcraft BCG and Magpul stock. I also added a really nice UTG mono top quad rail drop in, Magpul light mount and Snap-on light. The optic is Center Point from Walmart! She's a mutt alright but what an amazing shooter! Every thing fits together and it runs great!!
Now I have several LMT's, as well as a bunch of Anderson's and a Bushmaster...I can't tell the difference in any of them! I may defend the poor man's rifle but I respect all opinions so I don't mean this to be a poor vs snob post...just showing off my mutt!!
Why would it confuse anyone??
It’s a range toy assembled with the cheapest pieces parts possible & not a self defense weapon but a toy to play with.
take it to a 2 day high round class and it will choke and die but that’s not what it’s designed for
My Bushmaster needed a new barrel around 5k rds but they are known for being over gassed & way early burning out barrels
At the range this past weekend I was checking in and a couple older (late 40’s???) guys were leaving & complaining bitterly to the counter person about the AR’s they built that were not working properly and on & on while the counter guy tried troubleshooting them
I just smiled finally & got my name tag/lane assignment (indoor pistol range) and went shooting. No idea what they had as they were in cases and never asked
I’ve got a couple AR’s I assembled from pieces parts & they are range toys that I expect to have problems with but I almost never clean them, just wipe down, bore snake and oil, lots of oil…..
