Clearing out the safe, I noticed I have a Bushmaster barrel on RRA lower and an Armalite barrel on my Bushmaster lower, a DPMS barrel on a Mega lower, a RRA barrel on a OLY lower, you get the picture. No brand loyalty what so ever....all my rifles are mutts. No, it did not happen over night, but hell, didn't think I was that warped.
Anyone esle have a litter of AR mutts? |
|
I have a Sendra lower built with RRA parts attached to a DPMS upper. My other is an all RRA Varminter.

I've got a Bushmaster A2 20" HBAR on an Eagle Arms lower built with a RRA lower parts kit and a Colt buttstock. Does that count? [:D]
|
|
Hmm...never thought much about it. But since you mentioned it I realize I have have only one purebred...a NM Armalite. However, my earlier self built "NM" AR is complete with a bushmaster bolt, carrier, and float tube; DPMS barrel; Olympic upper; Eagle Arms lower; RRA two-stage trigger; with ASA supplied buttstock and lower kit. Don't know what I was thinking, but talk about Heinz 57.

Yep, I've got a mut on my hands.
Oly lower RRA upper rec. Custom/wecsog superlight 1:9 18.25" bushy barrel and bushy bolt carrier Colt hanguards, bolt, and charging handle DPMS lower parts kit Cav Arms C-1 buttstock KKF FFS It's funny how I like to shoot this rifle as much as my Colt and Bushmaster. |

Mine aren't mutts, they are "custom built" to my specifications. [:D][:P]

Coal Valley Eagle Arms Lower. Bushmaster Upper. Bushmaster internals. Colt buffer tube and H Buffer. Colt pistol grip. Vltor stock ARMS stuff on the reciever. KAC stuff on the handguard. This frankengun has NEVER malfunctioned, even when uncleaned and covered in dirt. Im about to frankengun my A2 into A4 with a new Bushmaster upper once I sell one of my handguns thats gathering dust. |
|
I like them better when I build them the way I want. Which makes them mutt-guns, but whats in a name anyway?
|
|
Bushmaster this, Colt that, LMT this. My mutts are still classy.
Reminds me of my dogs. Got a lab/who knows what-mix that is smarter than me. Then I got a "pure bread" yellow lab that is dumber than dirt. Pain doesn't even get through to this poor bastard...heart of gold though. It ain't the dog...its the dog's daddy! |
|
Most people think that one manufacturer makes the best stuff.
There is a pretty good chance that no matter who your favorite is, they made something thats on my rifle. I have all my bases covered. |
|
I only lower I don't have is from Colt. What do you call a mixed bred horse?
|
|
Four mutts at my house, too. The oddest bird is a 9mm carbine that doesn't have an ounce of Colt or Oly in it - BM lower, RRA upper, JRW mag block. :-)
|
|
All I have now is a MUTT. Got rid of all the name brand crap. [peep] OOOPS did I say that?
Eagle lower set in green . RRA upper. Colt Bolt ect. Bushy dissipator barrel. Shoots very well with no trouble. No matter what I put through it. [smoke] |

My rifle is almost as much of a mutt as I am! Let's compare.
Me: Norwegian, Swedish, German, English, Irish, Dutch and Cherokee Indian. Rifle: ShoeLess Ventures, RRA, DPMS, Bushmaster, Colt and ARMS. Now all I need is some KAC, Tango Down, Surefire, GG&G and KNS parts. [:)] |
|
How about a 1964 Colt upper on a 1974 Colt lower? A pickleforked mutt on top of a police dawg trade-in lower...

A mutt....oh yea!
Started out as a Oly Plinker, then came: RRA lower RRA faux tele stock Model 1 flattop upper Colt M4 handguards Had KKF turn down my 16' HBAR to M4 profile and install a A3 FFH. EOTech Bushmaster CH cut as a BUIS. Kept the Oly bolt, carrier and fire control group. About as mutt as a mutt can be! |
|
Mutt has such a negative connotation...
I prefer to think of them as a hybrid! [;)] All my AR's are hybrids! |

I was worried my unfired preban Bushmaster lower might have non Bushmaster parts so I gutted it and rebuilt the lower all Bushmaster. Then I bought all seperate parts for my upper...all Bushmaster, and assembled it myself. Then I bought Bushmaster Preban Teflon mags for it.
I may have a lot of different accessories on my rifle but at heart it is all Bushmaster. Bushmaster...better than a Colt. |
