16"? 20"? Muzzle Brake? Heavy Barrel? A1? A2? A3? There are numerous configurations. What kind of shape is it in?

Go to the "Online Catalog" of the Bushmaster website and try to find the exact rifle he has. Different models are worth varying amounts. Does it have a flash suppressor on the end of the barrel and a bayonet lug under it? Find the model, if it is a newer one, and we can help more. [url]www.bushmaster.com[/url]

BUY!
BUY!
BUY!
Never pass up a good chance at an AR-15.
Offer him $300, buy it, then sell it to me for $400

I would say it has a 20 inch barrel flipsites one mag. tacticle sling, and the only scrach on it is from brass casings hitting the deflector.

"Flash hidders and bayonet lugs do not, a pre-ban make." a wise old, handsome man once said.
Actually that was me and I'm not really that old.
If you can trust your buddy and he says a came as a complete rifle, notice if it's in a pre-ban configuration. That would add a couple hundred to the value. If he bought it before Sept. 94 he may have got a bargain and may be willing to pass some of that on to you.
Edited to add that that sounds like a pre-ban price.

no flash supressor or bayonnett lugs. How do you describe "pre-ban?"

If it doesn't have those two then it is probably "post".

I would go $600.
He got ripped he realy paid $1100 for a post ban.
Even if it's got a match barrel and match trigger you're still looking at a tad over $900.

I think DCM rifles are over a grand. Find out what the stampings on the barrel are. If it's a DCM barrel and he's not taking care of it, you may want to have a gunsmith check it out to make sure there's no corrosion (It's not chrome lined) especially if it's just been sitting for the last 2 years. If it's a regular 20" rifle then he's either jacking up the price or paid WAY too much for the gun new.
