That is about as good as you can do.
Does it include the carryhandle?

Its been a while since I bought mine.  Did you get a price quote right from Bushmaster?  You can order directly from them and have it shipped to your FFL.

well I asked them a while ago and the price was kinda high. I just asked some of the guys from gunsmoke and they said that they had some two m4's one with a y comp and another with a a3 combat comp. sounds like a great deal but I am not a real fan of muzzle brakes and, I am just kinda weighing my options right now.

When you say *with a3 sights* I assume you mean the a3 model with the detachable carry handle. $769 with the carry handle included is a very good price. I paid about $15 more for the same thing last February.

you may want to ask www.sportingarms.com for a quote & see if its any better.

Good luck.

I am in the same market that your are in.  Please let me know how it turns out with impactguns.com.  I hope to be ordering within the next few weeks myself, but I have yet to receive verification from them of the deal they are offering online for the 20" Bushmaster- similar setup.  Haven't gotten a price quote back from sportingarms.com yet either- 'bout all I know is the local dealer wants $1400 to order me one.  There is a thread about impactguns about 17 pages back in this forum.  Didn't seem negative toward them.  Good luck.

I bought a 16" A3 w/carry handle Bushy from www.youngsguns.com for 789 bucks, via gunbroker.com.

825 bucks delivered to me, I was happy.  They were polite and shipping was fast.

I just got a e-mail from gunsmoke and the said that those m4 were about $795. right now I am kinda wondering if the fuxed butt stick, muzzle brake and 203 step, are worth the extra money. but then again the butt stock alone is worth $100 at bushmasters website. but then again I don't like brakes. damn I guess it is decision time again. thanks for all the great suggestion.
if you guys come up with anything else please do tell. thanks again

"fuxed butt stick"? Careful ah1z, you're gonna get this thread locked! Seriously though, that doesn't sound like such a bad price.

make sure that the carry handle is included with that (assuming you want it). i got my bushy A3 dissipator from my local shop for $850 (handle included), the A2 was about $100 less.

again thank you all. I e-mailed impact to see if it does indeed include the carry handle, but they haven't gotten back to me yet because of there current overload of orders and e-mails. I just fired off a e-mail to aimsurplus.com for an estimate. I will keep you guys updated. you guys have been a great help.

When I got my Bushmaster 16" A3 from Impact the price on the website included the carry handle.  This is probably still the same since I think Bushmaster ships all complete A3s with the handle.  Hope this helps.

If you are talking the "V max A 3" Bushy, my wholesale catalogue shows that as being $720.00.  You might want to find a tabletop dealer who is willing to get it for you for a minimal mark-up.

hmmm my father has a whole salers license I wonder if he can still buy it and have it shipped to a ffl.

I bought mine in July.  There service isn't A+++ but its not bad either.  I am in the area though and picked it up in person and paid cold hard cash.  Don't know if that makes any difference or not.  I can imagine they are swamped as hell right now, their actual store isn't that big and from everything I hear they are moving quite a few guns.  Hope it works out for you and you get a good deal on a Bushy.
