I bought a Model1 A2 16" Hbar upper about a year ago.
Looks good - runs fine - great basic all purpose upper - cost me $375 complete

You really can't compare Bushmaster to Model 1 Sales. Bushmaster like Colt, is a top-tier manufacturer. Model 1 is simply a repackager/reseller of components and parts of in some cases unknown origin... There's only a $40 dollar difference between the M1S 20" HBAR 5.56 chrome lined and the Bushmaster... Your ultimate choice, but in some things, you do get what you pay for... |

I mated a Bushmaster 16" SuperLight to a Model 1 A2 Upper receiver. Fit, finish, accuracy, everything-perfect. I was very surprised and pleased.

Bushmaster is a manufacturer. They make their parts. Model 1 is a reseller. They buy wherever they can or wherever they can make the most money. Their parts are shit compared to Armalite Bushmaster or Colt. |

Bushmaster is a manufacturer as defined by the BATF, but I really doubt BM is running a extruder to make charging handles, injection mold to run plastics, a lathe to make bolt carriers or whatever . . . I look at BM as a Retailer, LMT or CMT are manufacturers. I would not debate you on the QC of their parts vs other . . . I have no idea ? My guess is if you called up [pick your brand name] and offered them triggers for 10% under what they are paying now, you would have a deal. |
