You'll never know until you try. Even among the same manufacturer, the finish color can vary slightly by the batch where it was anodized and dyed.

Many times, even a factory built complete gun won't have a 100% exact match between upper and lower, unless the upper and lower were finished together in the same batch before assembly.

RRA matches Pre ban guns better.
I just bought a RRA lower and put a Colt Post ban upper on it.
The lower looks more matte black than the Colt flat black.

It still looks great and shoots good, too.

The only person that will really notice is you.

RRA is great quality and will compliment any upper you decide to use.

I say ABC but I firmly believe it should be ABC & R.

I have a Bushmaster lower with a RRA upper and they match perfectly. I think you are always taking a chance when using two different manufacturers but sometimes you just get lucky.
