Ummmmm .... you lost us somewhere there. Maybe reconstructing your sentences would make it clearer ...

Were you saying that you already have a BM M4 type carbine that is why you are hessitant to buy a BM 20" rifle?

Ummmmm.....JUMP ON THAT DEAL.........

Are you asking whether you should get a 20" Bushmaster from your friend? If so, I think a 20" would be a nice change from your M4.

Why not just get the 20" upper for almost half that if you want a 20".  If you want another AR to keep that is a good deal.

If I understand the OP correctly, he has the chance to purchase a new "no ban" configured BFI 20" A3 rifle for $700.

If he wanted to re-configure his M4 to a 20" A3 rifle, he'd be looking at around $400-$500+ for the complete upper alone, minus the carry handle.  I think that price range covers new as well as used. He could just use the carry handle off his M4 if it's a flat top.  But he'd still be short a complete buttstock assembly which would run $50-$80 for a quality one.  Doing the math, he'd be ahead of the game to just purchase the complete weapon for $700.  So in fact, he'd be adhering to AR15.com law as he'd be applying the principal rule of "get both".

$700 for a 20" BFI A3... If it comes complete with the carry handle rvn6869, I'd suggest you get it if you have use for it as that's a smoking deal IMHO.

ETA: I have two BFI 20" A3 HBARs myself.  Paid a good deal more for each of them than $700, and that's considering that I didn't have use for the 1st one.  My objection is the HBAR barrel but I'm not minding them hogging a little room in the safe.  I'd imagine once I get out on the prairie dogs this summer with the HBAR scoped up, I'll remember why I was interested in getting them...
