    I could give a shit less what kind of lower folks are rollin' with, as long as they don't color the rollmark in.

    My lower is a DPMS and the internals are Bushmaster, The upper is CMMG from when they where one of the favorites (the AR crowd is somewhat fickle)

    It's been through 6 thousand rounds or so, including a ton of Wolf, in classes, competition and training.

    I've got a KISS Bushmaster from when the mantra was "ABC," as in "if its Armalite Bushmaster or Colt it's good to go." It also has a few thousand rounds through it.

    After a few mistakes when I got going I have always bought the best I could, where it mattered. And any AR I have, even if someone gave me a Colt or Noveske, has certain spare parts on board, as well as a clearing rod.

    I don't judge people on their guns, if I'm going to judge it's on how they shoot. If they shoot well their gun was probably reliable enough to get them there. I take that back, I look down at certain set ups. If I see a China Mart 3-9 sitting in an M4gery its a sign. A lack of BUIS always bothers me. But the gear queers bother me as much as the people who don't know better. When I see a top dollar quad rail sporting nothing but rail covers it makes me think- "man that's almost a case of ammo."

    This thread is entertaining. High end gear snobs can piss off, not everyones AR15 is their life and only hobby.. Yep zombie shit is gay and squashed bugs are the tapout crowd..but they still work just like the "cool" brands do.. But I gotta draw the line somewhere, so I agree with Akdoug.. All in good fun..

    1. Owns an AR because "it is cool!"
    2. Has never attended professional taught training class.
    3. Probably has no idea what they are talking about.
    4. Thinks that Wolf and Tula makes "good" ammo.
    5. Thinks that it is possible that there will actually be a zombie apocalypse.


    These are just some of the thoughts that run through my head. I know that stereo types are wrong and have friends that own one of these lowers and they DO attend training and are intelligent people that do not fantasize about shooting the undead.

    Am I alone on this??? Just curious if anyone else judges people by their lower choice.

    *Please don't send me hate mail because I insulted your lower of choice.

    Here is my list for people who post in general discussion.... oh wait....


    1. Owns an AR because "it is cool!" (if they own an AR)
    2. Has never attended professional taught training class.
    3. Probably has no idea what they are talking about.
    4. Thinks that Wolf and Tula makes "good" ammo.
    5. Thinks that it is possible that there will actually be a zombie apocalypse

    Stick


    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

    I judge more on the basis of component/accessories than rollmarks.

    Having said that, I just can't seem to wrap my head around those people who swoon at sight of a spider. Those thing sell like hotcakes on arfcom.

    Not the lower but what is on the AR, how they dress(trying to be tacticool or wearing sandals at the range), how fit they are(fatties), how they shooting(benched or offhand), how they are holding the carbine(looking for magwell grips usually)

    Also most of my lowers are spikes, got them at whole sales prices for about $70 each after the obongo panic died down, but the uppers that sit on top of them are BCM, LMT or custom builds.
