You can get either a STAG or Rock River Arms gun for around $800 (give or take $50) from
www.eaglefirearms.netThat being said, I would skip Bushmaster at this time. I have owned 20+ Bushmasters over the last 11 years. I have always thought their quality was top notch, but have noticed that during times of high demand their quality suffers. I have purchased 4 Bushmasters in the last 15 months and ALL 4 of them had to be returned to the factory for one reason or another. In a Tactical Carbine class 2 weeks ago we had 2 Bushmaster carbines go tits up due to the gas key not being staked properly. Hopefully the demand will go down and the quality of Bushmaster's rifles will come back up, but at the present time I would stick with CMT, LMT, Colt, and Rock River Arms. Just my .02
