Bushmaster makes a great rifle. Can't tell you about your specific one as ALL Bushmasters are XM-15s... [;)]

Bushmaster doesn't mark their lowers differently based on the configuration it left the factory in, because they do so many custom configurations that they would need thousands (actually, tens of thousands) of different model numbers. And, what would you mark the stripped lowers?

So what Forest and Troy(and the rest of us) are asking, is for more information. A1?,A2?,A3? 20" barrel? 16"?,14.5"?HBAR? M4? does it have an A2 stock, or a "M4" type? or an ARFX?
We're here to help, we just need details.[smoke] |

They suck! I mean it, they are awful. I hate to do it, but as I am feeling nice, I will take it off your hands for next to nothing. Really, I'm not kidding, I will take it!
Ps: Don't buy any crappy steel mags off e-bay, go to the equipment exchange here and buy only USGI mags. Keep her wet with CLP and you will love her. |

I am already learning!! It is a 20" with an attached carry handle. The stock is the 'standard' type (a non-telescoping). I am not sure how to tell whether its an A2, A3, etc...
Sorry guys, I am pretty ignorant when it comes to ARs. I had my mind set on an AK varient due to a lack of $$, but now that I have been given this I need as much info as possible. Thanks for the help.... 03Mav |

If it has a detachable carry handle (two big knobs on the left side), then it is an A3. If not, is most likely an A2. If it has a fixed (non-detachable) carry handle with NO elevation adjustment for the rear sight, then it is an A1.
Any other info you need: JUST ASK BTW: Don't worry about a thing (since it's a Bushmaster), just go shoot and enjoy it! |

Sounds like a standard 20" A2 HBAR. Nice shooting rifles, just a tad heavy.
They also have a DCM rifle that visually is nearly identical. Its just a lot heavier (lead weight in the stock), with a nicer trigger and more accurate barrel (which is free floated). If the rifle is ridiculously heavy then chances are its a DCM model for High Power competition. |
