[ARCHIVED THREAD] - 20" Bushmaster AR or 16" S&W M&P15?

Posted: 11/19/2012 7:46:51 PM EDT

Ok, so I have found 2 rifles locally, both set up similarly. one is a 20" Bushmaster AR15 with M4 stock, the other is a S&W M&P15. They are both around the same price. Both have an A2 front sight and MagPul MBUS. The M&P has an MOE hand guard, were the Bushmaster has an A2 hand guard. Other than that they are similar.

Torn between the 2, price is right for either. Help me decide.

Remington Bushmaster or Windham Bushmaster?

My vote would be for S&W.

Found out the S&W was a Sporter version with no dust cover or forward assist. So, I ended up picking up the Bushmaster. I will be using it for 3gun, until I decide on how I want to build a better AR just for 3gun.
