Before you purchase it, call Bushmaster and verify what type of receiver it is ( pre, post of LE/Class III ) via the serial number. I have never seen any that come marked like that that were not Class III machineguns. I have seen some re-marked receivers that were married to registered sears. The price is OK but stripped receivers can be had for about $100 from Rock River and others.

Definately verify that it is a post ban or preban legal lower and not a dealer post sample. It was probably marked that way for someone with a RDIAS. There is no law against it saying AUTO.
A LEO marked lower in the correct configuration is legal also but both may draw unwanted attention. It really is not anything special. I would recommend passing on it. The price isn't bad considering what it cost to get one remarked. Cruizer |

Thanks, I can be fairly certain its a post ban, as this dealer usually knows exactly what he has, I did not handle it so I am unsure of any other markings, as I am sure you will agree d rather stay away from something iffy and not raise any eyebrows.. But just to satisfy my curiosity im going down there during lunch tomorrow and handle it and talk to the shop owner.. Thanks again for the response.. John

Take note of the serial number. It will help.

Seriously? It is a good price. I always look for answers on this board. Maybe I will consider.. John

$120 for a stripped lower
It usually runs around $75 to $100 to have a lower engraved and refinished. |

These safe semi full markings are not engraved.. They are forged in..

as long as there is no auto sear hole.....or does not have a weld over sear hole, it's nothing to be concerned about. however if there is any indication that there was at one time a sear hole...run away from that, and keep running.
