Topic: New Bushy MOE 308 (Read 447 times)

Well, been lurking here a month or two, reading all about 308's, and I
started thinking I would build me a 308. Was leaning towards a Aero
Precision lower with Armalite upper. Then...

But then I saw Bushy's MOE model and I really like the way it's spec'd
out. It's exactly what I had in mind, and it comes with a warranty;
So knowing Bushy's reputation, I decided to take a chance
and well, here she is below!

Just picked her up tonight after completing California's 10 day jail term.
I'm very satisfied with the build quality from what I can see. I have other
AR's including what I consider real go-to-war guns, so I have a reference
from which to compare.

We'll see how this does to start, at the range next weekend.
Then in a few weeks, off we go to the desert camping, and give her a
good work out...

I really like that rifle - they did a good job on it. Excellent choice.

Sweet rifle.

..great looks right outta the box..can't get one in NY....WAAAAAHHHHHH.!! ...it's so unfair that even someone in Kalifornia can get one and we can't .....but I'm glad you can brother....happy shootin

....does that receiver say Windham, Maine?? Bushy packed up and left there last yr....I think it's a better looking lower than the DPMS.

Very nice. I almost went that route before I bought my lower, it just wasn't out yet then.

Thanks for the feedback, men.
Yes, it does say Windham, ME on the receiver.
The distributor/dealer converted in into Calif legal.
Here's a better pic

The former head of Bushmaster has opened Windham Arms, using original tooling and original employees of Bushmaster (the name falling now under the Freedom Group/Cerberus banner).

No .308 YET but I'm hoping!

I really, really liked my original Bushie Dissapator!
