    Default Will 450 Bushmaster upper fit my Barrett Rec7 Lower?

    I recently bought the Rec7 in 6.8spc Love the gun and love the caliber. BUT I shot my friends new Remington R-15 450 Bushmaster....and now i want one.

    Was wondering if a 450 bushmaster upper will fit my rec7 lower?

    Thanks in advance.

    I'm 99% sure it will. AR lowers (and most other parts) are standardized throughout the industry as far as measurements. upper plus magazines or followers and your thumper is ready.

    Proper magazines, and make sure you have the proper bolt.

    Sorry to be such a noob... but does the 450 bushmaster upper kits come with the bolt? I know they come with the magazine?

    Is there any reason NOT to buy a new upper for my lower? Seems silly to buy multiple guns for specific calibers when you I can just buy the different uppers that I want in that caliber? I guess what im asking is there a catch? Will my gun with the 450 bushmaster upper work and be as accurate as if i were to buy an actual 450 bushmaster specific rifle?

    Thanks again and sorry for all the questions,

    I know nothing about the Barretts but you can pin a 450 or 50 Wulf to a 5.56/multi caliber lower. I buy my uppers complete to match the bolt and barrel and a complete upper comes that way.

    Mine is the Rec7 in the 6.8spc. Maybe that doesn't make a difference...I guess I will just call Barrett today and ask them before I order the upper.

    Thanks

    I talked to Barrett and they confirmed it will fit so I ordered here upper Thursday. Thanks for the help I'll give a review once installed.
