I saw the message on the main AR15.com page encouraging us to send a message of encouragement/support to Bushmaster after this sniper incident. I think I have a better idea: Buy something! [:)] I'm going to pick up a few spare parts and extra cleaning brushes off their web page. I've been thinking about an extra upper receiver too..... |

Quoted: I'm looking for an excuse to buy another AR, I think I want a Pre-ban though, I like the functional collapsable stock, but is it really worth an extra thousand bucks??[rolleyes] I don't think its worth it. Especially when you'll be able to pick them cheaper in a couple of years (after the ban expires). |

No, collapsible stocks are interesting but not worth the extra money. If you want to try a muzzle break that works without blowing out your ears, try the AK styles mb that bushmaster makes. I have one and it works extremely well without the added racket. My kit rifle projects will always start with a Bushy lower. They are the best. |

Quoted: Are they ever going to make an M4 upper without that stinking, ear shattering muzle brake? They need to pay Kurt to make them some. I sure wish they would. The mini-y looks cool and works well, but I hate all the noise and I can tell the other shooters at the range don't like feeling the blast of all my shots. Right now it looks like for an M4 upper its mini-y or nothing. I'm going with nothing then getting a Cav-comp -> http://www.cavalryarms.com/accessories.htm |

Let's see. $1300 or so minus $700 or so does not come out to $1000 last time I checked. I won't buy a Bushmaster as I prefer ArmaLite/Eagle Arms, but I would offer encouragement and would even donate to some of kind of defense fund if needed. |

Where'd you get that number? I don't think its worth it. Especially when you'll be able to pick them cheaper in a couple of years (after the ban expires). As much as I'd LOVE for you to be right, the odds are not in our favor. Don't plan your AR purchases on it. |
