Great service from buds, the rifle itself showed up no dings or scratches cleaned it and very accurate no problems so for with 200 rounds through it so for. Glad I decided to purchase this gun. I prefer the fixed stock and long barrel.

As basic AR-15 type rifles go, you really can't do better. The price and quality you're getting for under $1,000 can't be beat. Right out of the box using only the iron sights that came with the rifle I was putting together just under 2" groups which is excellent for 60+ year old eyes shooting regular ball ammo, American made, of course. I refuse to buy anything made by the commies, besides what is made in Russia is far inferior to our ammo made here,but to stay on topic, this rifle really is in my opinion one of the top 5 best AR-15 rifles made anywhere that money can buy. I own a number of " custom made boutique" AR-15 type rifles and they are fine long guns but if I literally had to put my life on the line like our boys and gals overseas this with a good scope would do just fine. I am a big fan of the "Stoner rifle" and the quality, price and most of all, the reliability of this AR-15 just can't be beat, hands down. If you do buy this rifle, you'll never regret it.

After much research and waiting I got my first AR type weapon,I saw this Bushmaster and took the plunge!!! I could not be happier! What a awesome firearm,right out of the box at 50yds I was on paper in the 7/8 ring with 5 rds,only bad thing is that youll burn up a lot of ammo before you know it.....Im new to AR;s but this weapon reminds me of the Viet nam era M16.So in closing its a well made,beefy firearm and a lot of fun to shoot.
