The "lesser known brands" picture thread

[Sidneyious]

If its one brand I dont see a lot of is ADM, granted the only thing ADM here is the lower but for the most part almost everything in the lower they use themselves(- trigger and buffer)
I really like the adm lowers when it comes to ambi controls I like what they did.

The right side bolt lever could be a tad larger but I see why they didnt and thats snag hazards.
Some day I will try out a full adm gun but for now I will be happy with just the lower.

Patriot Ordnance Factory? I have one of their older direct impingement rifles and it has ran excellent with several thousand rounds through her. This was before they put all the ambidextrous nonsense on it.

Not lesser known manufacturer but likely uncommon 5.56 model.

Lefty DPMS which uses a modified right-hand bcg. The bolt carrier has the gas vents on the same side as a left-handed carrier. It uses a left-hand bolt. BUT, the bolt rotates the same direction as a right-hand bolt due to the slot/cut in the carrier. I'm told a left-hand bolt in a conventional right-hand carrier will work however, instead of the extra gasses being exhausted out the ejection port, they would hit the right side of the inside of the upper spewing all that garbage to include down into the trigger assembly. It's different for sure.

Note the left-hand ejection port and solid right-side of upper with meaningless brass deflector. Shoots great.

Here's my build sheet:

DPMS Hybrid Left-Hand A2 Upper Rcvr

Black Creek Precision Lower Rcvr

PSA / FN mid-length 16" barrel and assembly (fsb / delta assembly / A2 flash hider)

DPMS bolt carrier (Hybrid)

ALG/Geissele Go-Juice Lubricant where needed (imo)

Mostly unchanged from other times I've posted this one...

LaRue UU kit built on a Centurion lower. Lower was from the group buy that we did here a few years ago.

These days Armalite is almost a lesser-known brand. Hardly ever see them mentioned or advertised much any more.
