Hello Gents,
new guy here,read some post before i decided to post.
saw a lot of bushy bashing. im not picking a fight,
but please lighten up on us guys who just like what we like.
my 1st is a bushy,cmt,rockriver mutant.
i didnt know all what was allowed here in md.
but my next wont be neutured like this one.
looking to get to know some others who share
same sentiments, that we buy what we like.
name and price dont matter.
Hello and welcome.
I think you are mistaking “BM” bashing with the truth that BM puts out a subpar product (at best). I am not sure why people get the two mixed up, but they do.
If you like BM and it runs well for you then great!

Welcome.
We deal in “actual reality” here at M4C. It is fine that you like BM and own one, but that does not negate the facts about their generally poor QC and non mil-spec components.
You’ll find that the overwhelming number of poster on this site speak from personal experience, and not from some arbitrary viewpoint or “something they heard.”
This site does not constitute brand “Kool-Aid Drinkers”; if Colt or LaRue or BCM or Noveske puts out something that is garbage, it will be noted here.
Thanks for the welcome!
my actual reality is,I have always wanted an ar15.
And because I am not in or connected with the millitary,
milspec is not a worry for my range toy.
On the other hand,when I build my shtf weapon.
That will be a different matter all together.
Thanks again.
Your welcome.
You don’t have to be connected to the Military to want a good quality, reliable AR. 80% (or more) of the members on this forum are not in the Military. We do however value a high quality fighting weapon.
One of the goals of this forum is to make people aware that you do not need to spend a fortune for a Mil-Spec, TDP following weapon. Often times these higher quality AR’s are the same price as a BM or $100 more. Not much to pay for a lot better weapon.

Thank you!
I’m thinking of changing my signature line to “bought a Bushy huh? Did you know that for 10% more money you could have had a 100% more gun?”
which companies follow the tdp?
Not trying to hijack but what about DPMS im still learning too
Typically weak bolts, which are an easy fix.
Hey, admitting your problem is the first step to your road to success:D .
No worries. Welcome to the site. Whatever works for ya. I came here for the truth. And I’ll continue to visit because there’s a wealth of honest people and knowledge here. I hope you’ll grow with us. Cheers and enjoy the site:cool:
Hows that Ruger 45 working our for you in your pic you attached?
This whole thread just makes me think of throwing lambs to the wolves. 
As a novice like yourself, I find DPMS not the most spectacular. In my very humble opinion, I’d stick with the following. More qualified industry professionals know much better than myself.

its my wife’s pistol,not real happy right now.
likes to chamber a round when you slap in a magazine.
dont have to hit slide release.
well i shouldnt say chambers a round,more like an ftf.
looks like groove for slide release may not be quite deep enough.
I see. You’ll find many guns will actually chamber a round if you *slam the magazine in too hard. Thats a fairly common phenomenon. Whats more alarming is its hanging up and causing a FTF.
a more gentle touch produces no probs.
its just when you slap the mag in is when problem surfaces.
any other time functions beautifully.
so i guess i will just let her play with her own toy!

Good question. Had one of the local LE academy instructors in the shop the other day and they said that they banned anyone from buying a Ruger HG for duty use.
