I'm new to the website and farely new to ar-15's. I am looking at purchasing my 1st ar-15 and was wondering about the Colt vs. the Bushmaster. I have heard mixed reviews about both and was wondering your opinion on which to buy. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks Ian |

You'll not go wrong with either choice. Colts are more expensive and resell is higher simply due to their name more then anything ([;)]) which is known by rookies. I own a few AR's [:D], none of them have trouble with anything I run though them ... and none of them are Colts. I'm buy the Bushmaster in a heartbeat. |

I have both - Colt M4 and Bushmaster Varminter. I like the Colt because it has a bunch of features not found in any other stock M4s - it shoots great and handles well, no problems so far after about 2K rounds plus I like the pony to look at and if I'm ever desperate, I know the resale value will be there. I love my Bushmaster Varminter - I think the trigger is superb, at least on my gun, but I'm still in the process of breaking in and haven't put that many rounds through it. All I can say, it sure is accurate![img]http://www.fototime.com/0850583B96F650C/standard.jpg[/img] |
