Well all I got, at different times that day, was nothing. Midday, no response. Thought noting of it. At that time.

One more time that evening. Odd.

The next AM. Went to the Bushmaster forum. found ohters there with same issue. And one who could not get them to answer.

Others pointed out issues with Freedom and Marlin's too. Just wondered if it was a trend given all the events the last year.

I don't know any rumors, but a lot of changes for them in the last year. Perhaps risky ones.
Hell I did not even know, till that night while researching, that the Main facilities hade been closed.

Sorry, perhaps should not have asked so publicly. I like Bushmaster, but they
were doing some things that made me worry about them.

While I may not be happy with them. I do not want them to go away. They have contributed
to the recent boom in AR growth, interest, and the current AR culture. Part of how we got here
so to speak. I'd like them to be part of that future. I'm nostalgic that way
