I have been able to bump fire my AK's with ease because of the insane recoil from those guns, however, How the heck can you bump fire an AR???  I have almost no recoil from my Bushy....?

You can do it without that gay foregrip.  Just hold the handguard and press forward, while bringing the gun to your hip and firing (might help to put a thumb around a beltloop, pulling back).  But you say you have a Bushmaster -- you don't perchance have a mini-y comp on there, do you?  Cuz it does eat a ton of that recoil.  I have managed to do it once while the mini-y was on there, but it was hard to find the appropriate index.  Give it a try!

You ought to remove that stupid POS.  It's not too terribly hard, plus your gun makes a cool FIREBALL after that.  Just don't get caught, if your barrel is 14.5" or shorter

Or you could just have that Y-comp removed and have a Phantom or any 1 1/2" flash hider put on it

Actually I called Bushmaster about that and they told me that its not possible to do that without destroying the barrel, (hence the "permanantly attached mini y comp") per BATF requirements....  A new barrel is less than 200 bucks so I think that is the route I will go....
