They were simply known as the Bushmaster Rifle, Carbine, and Pistol, I believe.
Around here they go for around $700-1200, depending on the seller. -Cap'n |

I owned for a short time one of the old preban B/M's with the folding stock. Think those were manufactured by Gwin or maybe it was Gwinn Firearms and was some place in Maine.
IMHO the old preban AR-180's are about the best value in preban AR's. There's lots of 55grn mil-surp ammunition around and those 1:12 twist barrels love the stuff. |

That would have been the Bushmaster Assault Rifle:

(Actually that picture is probably not of the B/M I owned but you know what I mean !) |

Quoted: I actually wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of those. TS I've shot one, and truth be told, it's a pretty sucky rifle. But if it was cheap enough, it *would* make an interesting collector's item/historical piece. I know a dealer who has one, or did recently... -Troy |

When I originally saw this post I thought maybe the kids at Bushmaster were going to start making an AR 180 clone (out of METAL [headbang] ). I thought "wheeeee...there's hope!!!"
Then I saw THAT!!!! [puke] and the rest is recorded in the annals of vomitorium history. |

I wouldn't use it as my primary weapon, in any case. TS |
