Just here to rant.

I was putting the finishing touch on my AR-10 build, the barrel nut and gas tube. At first Bushmaster sent me the clamp for the ar-15 and not the ar-10 so back to the shop it goes and I wait for the right one. Now all is good and Im feeling a range day is in sight until I try to put in the gas tube which came marked as a carbine length. Well my 18" Noveske says otherwise as its way too long. Dont it figure, now that has to get reordered and Im back cutting gator squares.

Anyway just wanted to let others know that your not alone in the old nothing goes right thing.

Could be worse, I got in a semi once from a known "quality" maker that made for a nice single shot gun (something seriously wrong with the gas system).

So much for that range day. The good news it only can get better from here.

Yeah I just put on a MOE grip by Magpul on my AR10 and it pinched up the spring for the safety detent I thought I was going to have to not use the grip pissed me off...well I took a deep breath and thought for a minute "hey drill the hole bigger". Yeah it works like a charm now. Gotta have some Patients with them AR10s.

Bushmaster has screwed up every order I have ever placed with them.
They have even added things that I did not order, and billed me.
Then they want me to cover return shipping and include papers just prove that I didn't order the item so I can get my money back.
Then, after the charge disappears on my cc, it magically reappears, so I have to change my cc #'s with my bank.
I can't bring myself to ever order from bushmaster ever again and it doesn't surprise me a bit that this happened to you.

Bushmaster makes good stuff but their arrogance, and incompetence have forced me to go elsewhere.

God bless capitalism!
