bushmaster's seem to be signicantly cheaper than a lot of the barrels and uppers out there.  how is there quality?  do they fare well with other competitors?

I have a Bushy "Patrolman's Carbine" and an A2 clone I built myself that uses a 20" gov't profile 1/7 twist bushmaster barrel.  I find them to be superb.  I really like Bushmaster's stuff, its never let me down.

I would have to agree with all post.  I have the patrolmans carbine and the only thing it doesn't like is remington and wolf hollow points.  Approximately 2000 rounds thus far and no problems with cheaper ammo (blackhills, WWB, etc.)  Accuracy is also great.

Goes without saying......ABC's of ARs ....u can bet your life on any one of them.  But also, the customer service at Bushmaster is really helpful and happy to do so.  Real personal.  They care about quality, I am sure A and C do too, but I only buy B bc I have never had a prollem with them and they are who I started with.

Quality is good for the price. They take some shortcuts like using Rifle Brl extensions and rifle front sight bases on Carbine Brls though.

So figure on spending an extra $12.00 for a taller front sight post to properly zero your BUIS.

Plus the majority of their Brls are 1:9 which may or may not shoot 75Gn ammo acceptably and will not shoot 77Gn acceptably.
