[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Buying first AR15 ( Bushmaster )

Posted: 4/17/2002 7:11:41 AM EDT

Has anyone purchased anything from www.discountfirearms.com???? I have been a lurker on this board for months now and figure somebody may have made a purchse from these fellas. I have already done a reverse lookup on their DNS and 3 names came up for registration. I know to stay away from Botach and a few others...any info on these fellas maby???
By the way...Glad to be here!!!

Welcome to the boards, watch out for the trolls!

BNJ is a good place to look, however some of their prices are higher than I'd pay. Use Gunlist, gunsamerica.com and shotgun news to see if the price is acceptable. As far as their service, I wouldn't worry one bit about sending them your money!

Welcome.
Good choice.

Their prices seem to be good compared to most in ATL and on the net. 750 for the Vmatch carbine seems to be a pretty good price. Gunsamerica prices seem to be a bit more. Thanks for the response, any other info would be great.

Give Bernie a try. He has almost any Bushie or Armalite on the wall with more factory sealed in back.

He is so busy that his site needs help. Give him a call. Ask for his daughter, Maria, she has it all in one bag.

Bernie's has an excellent selection of AR15's to choose from. If it were me and it was my first ar15. I would go there and ask a million questions while fondling there huge selection of ar15's. You would be better off buying one in person than off some website. Provided ,of course, that the prices are not too far apart.
Bernie's has a good reputation and will give you the best deal he can. Don't be shy, a place like Bernie's loves to answer questions.

Welcome!

Check out the 2002 LEGP:

The LEGP isn't a Bushy, but it's a heck of a deal.

Yeah - I made the mistake of letting Bernie hand me that Wilson Combat M4, DAMN! I just can't shell out 1700 bucks right now, but it is SWEET!!! I still love my Bushmaster tho!

Thanks for the Bernies link, I may just drive over there on Sat. I will prob purchase a Beretta 96 first, his price is not that bad. On the site they only have one Bushmaster..does he have more in stock? I would imagine so.

I think I'll take a drive to Bernies on Sat. too. Never been there.

I was there this past Sat, they had 4 or 5 Bushmasters out, some Armalites, Olys and Wilson Combats. A couple of prebans too.

Seems the Dixie Ammo Dump has some really good prices for Bushmasters. How many members on here are from GA? Are there any good ranges around? The only two outdoor ones I know of are out on 20 @ Advanced Bullets and a public range up 85.

Mid-Ga here. Sorry, have my own property/range.
