(1) Very satisfied with mine, had it since '99

(2) No, my M1A is my favorite, but the Bushy runs a very close second.

(3) It treats me very well.

(4) No. Not even with the factory 10 round mag.

(5) Don't know. It's the only one I've owned.

1, Yes

2, Tie, between my Hi power, M1A, and my bushie

3, I treat as a high use assault rifle, if I cant clear a 120 rounds in less than two minutes without a jam, my gun is usless. My gun is not usless. But clean it every time after I shoot. So it does treat me good.

4, Only if you bump fire the thing, but what do you exspect from bumpfiring.

5, No, but one of the best. I make tons of money so I can afford better toys, ie. class 111.

well, all I own is 3 bushies. I have sold a Colt and 2 olympic arms. Does that tell you anything?

!. Absolutely
2. #2, only b/c it is a HB, and too heavy for long carry.
3. Very accurate, nice trugger, and reliable.
4. It will eat ANYthing as long as I use a good magazine.
5. Absolutely. USNAVSPECWAR uses Bushmaster. I'd like to have more.

1. Yes, I would buy another Bushmaster.

2. No, I like my RRA LEGP M4gery better.

3. Loves USGI mags and federal AE 55gr.

4.It only jams with crappy mags (like the 10 round Busy mag included). It also doesn't like some cheap surplus ammo.

5. No, Knights, Wilson Combat, and Les Baer all make better AR rifles (IMO). But bushy's are much more affordable. A great choice for the $.

My only problem with my Bushmaster is the horrendous trigger pull. I have a J.P. trigger sitting in my parts box waiting for me.

Quoted:
(1)Are you?

ABSOLUTELY!

(2)Is your bushey your favorite firearm?

Trying to decide if my Favorite is my Bushy 20" A2 or my Bushy M4orgery....

(3)Dose it treat you good?

Treats me excellent!

(4)Dose it jam even with the best ammo you can buy?

Jam??? Whats That?

(5)Is it the best AR-15 you can get?

Depends on what you plan on using your AR-15 for. IF you want the 'BEST' DCM, space gun or vramint rig then look elsewere. If you want the 'best' for defensive use/as a tactical tool then YES its the best.

(1)Are you?

Yep

(2)Is your bushey your favorite firearm?

One of the better ones...

(3)Does it treat you good?

Yep

(4)Does it jam even with the best ammo you can buy?

Never jammed. Not even when I was shooting Wolf.

(5)Is it the best AR-15 you can get?

Nope. I could always spend more and get a custom gun. But is the best for the money!
