Bushmaster doesnt even make their own uppers.

No kidding. LAR does.
I would expect anything from model 1 to be second rate compared to anything else out there.

Well if what Model 1 just told me is true, then what you said is not. I called Model 1 and they told me they get their uppers from CMT, National Aerospace and LAR. They went on to tell me these are the same manufacturers that BM, Colt et al get their receivers from.

Not exactly. I said that Bushmaster gets their from LAR, meaning that model 1 doesn't get theirs from Bushmaster. I never said they don't get them from LAR.
That said, LAR does make Bushmasters receivers, and CMT makes Colts.
Now, if Model 1 gets their parts from these subs, that doesn't make them high quality automatically. Each different company has their own QC, and technically the subs are building to the spec of the different company ordering from them. So, just because you have a model 1 upper made by LAR for model 1 does not mean that it is the same quality as a Bushmaster upper made by LAR for Bushmaster. Model 1 wouldn't ever say it like that though!
Also, if the model 1 receiver is good quality, it's one of the only parts you could expect to be from them (that and the barrels)...
I will warn you that their LPK's, bolts, and collapsable buttstocks are nothing but pure trash.
