The fact that DPMS doesn't offer chrome lined barrels and mid length gas systems on any of their rifles, and Bushmasters have them standard.

Sad this is happening. We have all had that horrible sinking feeling when we buy a lemon, or the rifle doesn't perform as it should.
I hope you can get this resolved to your satisfaction.

Just a reminder:
He didn't buy a lemon, just mistook normal denting of brass for a problem. The real problem came into the picture when the gun was worked on to correct the denting-which wasn't a problem. Or at least this is the best I can figure out from what we've been told. Like you I hope Bushmaster can do something with it.

I do believe your friend needs to get familiar with his rifle, that's not much a person can't do with a wrench, some go/no go gauges, anda few common tools, also, try to find a guy that specializes in ar, especially if you want to deal with somebody locally, and you can always ask here for conformation if your rifle is showing signs of malfunction. good luck with your gun

Well to be fair, chrome lining is in reality an overkill for your average shooter I mean be realistic your average shooter will probably never burn out a barrel; chrome lined or otherwise as well as taken much better care of than the standard Gov't issue weapon. Just my opinion based on my many years in the industry, both on the sales end and on the repair/armorer/gunsmith side.

In the photos it appears that the corners of the locking lugs are slightly chamfered.
