    Thanks Bert



    In 09 I picked up a NIB 20" A3 (flat top) and put a rail, Eotech, PRS stock and a couple goodies before I even shot it. Took it to the hills and no matter what I did it would not cycle. Checked all the usual suspects such as gas leakage, FSB alignment etc. I could find no deficiencies. Again it would not cycle, just a single shot rifle. I sent it back to Bushmaster and they sent it back after a month and a half.
    Took it back up to the hills and same crap.
    I dumped it at Gander Mountain and even made a bit of a profit. Pretty much turned me off of new Bushies.

    An actual Armalite Model 01 would have been made between 1959 and 1961, and is both C&R designated, and usually NFA registered. The original AR-15 was a select fire design, through both models 01 and 02 before adoption by the USAF, sale to Colt Patent Firearms Mfg, and eventual type classification and adoption as the M16.

    So what is it that you've got, that you're considering buying?

    My Armalite A2 built in 2000, hasn't missed a shot yet. Seems as good as anything else I've seen.
    Sometimes people trip and fall down stairs.
    Sometimes assholes push people down stairs.
    That doesn't mean "stairs are bad" nor does it make someone who pushes someone down the stairs any less of an asshole.
