This is my "new" Bushmaster flattop carbine.

It has a Millett Red Dot SP2 on it.

It also has a BM fold down front sight. I will have to get a BUIS (back up iron sight) for the rear. The trigger is quite crisp.

More mags, a take down tool, and a sling, and I'll be ready to go.

It really does appear to be just about like new. It's a 4 year old rifle that's been sitting in a guy's safe.

Here's a couple quickie pics:

Roger- Is that the "SuperLight" Shorty?

I'm not sure if it's called that or not.

It's a 16 inch HBAR flattop, with a fold down front sight.

It is not a "Superlight". It is a heavy barrel (aka, HBAR).

I traded a real nice Springfield 1911 for it.

Sounds like you came out on top of that deal! Good job!

I don't know about "on top". The Springfield was a Loaded model that had a lot of custom features added, as well as an action job.

We both got something we wanted, for something we didn't use.

It was a good deal in both directions!

I have ordered a #38EX Swan sleeve for it, so I'll have a BUIS. I should have it by the weekend.

I'm not sure what else I'll do for it.

But I'm already thinking of getting a Varmint Upper...................

Does anyone know why they taper the end of the barrel like that? Can that tapered portion be threaded later if/when the ban expires?

BTW...Nice rifle RogerC!!!

It's so a fake flash hider or a muzzle break can be put on.

Maybe I'm weird, but I prefer AR's without any. Especially those breaks that make the gun LOUDER.

I suppose it could be threaded, but I don't know what the standard thread size is.
