| I have a delemia..... I can get a pretty good price on an AR But I dont know which one to get. I have a choice between an Armalite or a Bushmaster. Any thoughts on which one I should get? Thanks for any info! |

Both oare of exceptional quality. Armalite is the original, so for that sake I would go with armalite. If wanting to make a statement in support of Bushmaster with the lawsuit over the DC sniper (My statement has already been made) then go with the Bushy. Are both set up the same? I.E. barrel length, same upper stock etc... See which is more comfortable to you if they are set up differently. If identical options I would go with the Armalite. |

Something to remember... if you get an Armalite in carbine (16") the handguard setup will likely be mid-length with is not real common. If you ever wanna get handguard with rails or such you'll have a tougher time finding them to fit. That said... I have and Armalite and I love love love it!!! Good luck! Flip a coin [;)] |

I would personally be torn between the two. I have a BM that functions flawlessly and accurately, but I like Armalite's stance on the AWB, their participation within the site and their family company feel to them. HOWEVER, after owning one of their AR10t's, I have a bad taste in my mouth. I'd say which ever is cheaper. (BM) |
