    And it is generally in agreement with your post on the subject.

    Someone once said something to me about having a "Frankengun" and he had a factory DD rifle.

    So I compared:

    He had a DD lower.

    I had an AP lower. (AP = Aero Precision -- this was before DD was selling their lowers stripped -- another gun I of mine I would compare against his I used a stripped DD lower on so that would match; but it has a troy forearm)

    He had a DD upper.

    I had a DD upper.

    He had a DD rail/forearm.

    I had a DD rail/forearm.

    He had a DD BCG

    I had a DD BCG

    He had DD LPK.

    I had a mixed Colt and I forget who LPK. I had a Colt trigger / selector / hammer and the rest were good name but I forget (this was like 3.5 years ago)

    He had a Magpul stock

    I had a Vltor stock (though my second one I referenced above has a Magpul stock)

    He had a Vickers sling

    I had a vickers sling.

    He had an Aimpoint micro (probably a T1)

    I had an Aimpoint micro (T1).

    He had a fixed Front and a DD rear fixed.

    I had Troy flip ups front and rear.

    His was made by a DD employee probably earning $15/hour (just a guess).

    Mine was put together very carefully by me.

    Which one is more Frankengun?

    Frankengun is any gun made up of multiple manufacturers' parts. They can be top notch and assembled correctly or total pieces of shit, dont matter.

    It has become a derogatory term because of peoples stupidity, or lack of discretion

    This vid from HOSS USMC is a perfect example why Frankenguns get a bad name..........

    Rumor has it the guy fixing the carbine keeps tools in his beard for just such an occasion.......

    It's a nonsense term and don't give it one thought either way. It's about the assembler, not the source of parts.

    So the LE6920MP-FDE shown here is a Frankengun?

    http://www.coltsmfg.com/Catalog/Colt...arbinesII.aspx


    Or almost any of the DD rifles shown here?

    https://danieldefense.com/rifles.html?p=1


    Or this BCM (EAG Tactical Carbine)?

    http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-M...gers-s/151.htm


    They are made of parts from an assortment of manufacturers.

    This OP lacks substance.
    Why are you posting this?
    You got a lower. Big deal.
    Read the forum rules.
    Build the rifle.
    Post why you built it and how you came to the decision to buy the parts you did.
    M4carbine is not your Twitter.

    They are illigetimate weapons that have no real purpose other than to attract retards to the gun community.

    Not sure how this twitter post escaped, but it's closed. For those of you who think parts are parts you need to get more and start looking at the issues. All 3 classes I have conducted so far have shown just how dicked up stuff can be.
