Do all the major manufacturer's use some type of dry film lube inside their upper receivers, or is it something only Bushmaster does?  I'm specifically curious about armalite/eagle arms uppers, since I'm considering buying one.  Does the military specify this process in their uppers?  Thanks.

I don't see how it matters much assuming you are going to keep your rifle properly lubricated.  If you want the dry film lube, you can have it done yourself I suppose, it's not that hard.

I always keep my rifle well lubricated, so I guess it shouldn't be a problem.  It sounds like it's a nice touch to have, but not really needed.  I'm a little surprised that colt doesn't do it.  I guess that shows that they don't feel it's needed either.  Thanks.

You mean I'm supossed to lube that thing?

Ahh, I see it now. It's pretty much worn off my bushy after aprox' 1000 rounds. It looks like my La Belle mags.
