I have 2 with L prefix and both were bought as complete rifle. If I m going to spend 50K on a shoulder fired weapon, it better be capable of vaporizing a dump truck without leaving a trace. I have one of each that came on complete rifles. The L is the receivers forged by LAR/Grizzly. I was told that the L was for a receiver that was sold as a lower only not a complete rifle. Both serial numbers start with XX or XXV though. The 25th anniversary has the snake head like I just looked at my anniversary bushmasters. So which is suppose to be better lar or the bfi. Personally, I think that the snake on the LAR receiver looks nicer. The Bushmaster manufactured reciever will have a bigger snake logo as well. I understand that a Bushmaster will come with either an LAR manufactured receiver with a L-serial number, or a Bushmaster manufactured receiver with a BFI-serial number. I think it means that it is a LAR forging. I think all Bushmaster lowers can accept a RDIAS. If it will get your teeth knocked out in real life, you ll get banned for it. I would just like to know what the difference is I have searched and can not find what is special or different, can someone please enlighten me. I keep reading on here people posting about their builds using a bushmaster lower with a L serial number.
One serial number starts with an L, the other starts with BFI.
What does the serial number on my XM15-E2S mean.
