I tried to order one at A.F. Boyer and he said that his distributors told him it is not even a valid Bushmaster part number. Fortunately the guy had a laptop sitting there and I had him go to bushmaster.com, to show him I did not just make the number up. I even called Bushmaster to verify the number. The store owner told me it might be until the end of summer until he could get one.
I gave up on this one, I had him order a 20" Bushy A3 style, price $750, he could not even give me a price on the SLW because none of his distributors lists it. The M4 was $799 with a waiting list. And I just think there is too much cosmetic with no additional function.
I would not mind waiting 45 days for the SLW but not till the end of summer.

Does anybody here have one of these or having similar issues with getting one?

What's the wait to order on from Bushmaster? I have been looking at one for my girlfriend.

BM SLW barrel assemblies are taking about 4 weeks according to what the BM rep told me last week. Wouldn't think an assembled rifle would be much different if the barrel availability is the issue.

I got the chance to handle one at a gun show last weekend in Orlando, FL. All I can say is: WOW! They aren't kidding about "Super Light Weight!"  IIRC, they come in around 6 pounds. I didn't bother asking the price, but I imagine they were trying to make a killing off of it!

I've been trying to find one online for a reasonable price.  Most dealers in my area do not associate themselves with "those kinda guns."  I have found one dealer locally that will order items for 10% above his cost, but stack on sales tax, shipping, etc.  It would be nice to find a deal online and just pay the dealer $20 to recieve it and skip the tax.

I've found a few places online with good prices on Bushmasters. I've emailed several places for quotes on the Superlight with no responses.  Guess they don't want to sell anything...

Any of you guys know a good place online to order Bushmasters at a reasonable price?

My dealer found one with A2 handle, but I wanted an A3.  He said four weeks until they ship.

I have a complete upper I want to sell.  It has a Bushmaster  Superlight barrel (1/9 chrome lined) and Colt bolt.  I'm not sure who made the upper receiver.  Everything is in excellent conditon with less than 15 rounds through it (minor handling marks).  $450 delivered.  PayPal okay or cashiers check/money order.  Thanks, Dave
