An older friend of mine has asked me to help him find a good AR15 to replace his Mini-14. He wants a good varmint gun. I showed him my older Bushmaster and my Lewis Machine Tool and he likes the accuracy of both.
It has been a long time since I bought an AR and I heard that Bushmaster is now owned by someone else, Remington I think. Can anyone tell me if the Bushmaster quality has changed since the company was sold? Are the Bushmaster rifles the same good quality they were 10 years ago?
My friend also stopped at a gun shop where he looked at a Savage and asked me if they were worthwhile. He likes the trigger on the Savage. I really have no idea since I didn’t even know that Savage makes an AR now. Can anyone tell me about the Savage AR’s? Are they any good?
I’ve had experience with a few different brands including Bushmaster, LMT, Colt. Olympic, Palmetto Armory and Armalite and I’m steering him toward a Bushie, LMT or Armalite/Eagle Arms.
Can someone recommend any other decent quality AR’s in the $700 range?
Thanks!!!
