Who makes the best receiver? Which receiver is the best? Which receiver is the highest quality?

The answer is that all of them are pretty much the same. The actual brand of receiver means little to nothing. When deciding on which receiver you should purchase you should take into consideration two factors: price and manufacturer. Of course if price is not an object, get the receiver that has the logo or emblem that you want. That may sound superficial, but the best receiver really comes down to the one you like the best.

There are currently FOUR manufacturers that produce the majority of lower receivers for the AR market. Mega Machine Shop, Stag Arms (CMT), LAR, and LMT receive orders from many licensed manufacturers who obtain an ATF variance to have them cut and logo receivers on their behalf.

LAR Manufacturing makes receivers with the following brands: LAR = Grizzly, Bushmaster (L Prefix), Ameetech, DPMS, CMMG, Double Star, Fulton, Spike's Tactical, Noveske.
