Can't find a Bushmaster 20" AR-15A3 anywhere....

[lionking]

jeez, my local gun store can't find one, gun broker doesn't have any. I want a bushmaster 20" with removable carry handle and flash hider. 10 zillion M4 style carbines abound, no rifles. Doesn't anybody use iron sights anymore? I want that option even though I plan on putting a ACOG on it.

Nope, even the military doesn't want the old iron sights any more.

But there are probably other brands available besides Bushmaster, with rifle length and carry handles.

Delton for example:

Then you just add their $85 detachable carry handle.

only found a Colt a4 on gunbroker, asking $1800 for it, I know many make AR-15 style rifles but I trust Bushmaster and Colt, my gun store quoted $800 for a Bushmaster but can't find one, not paying $1000 more for a Colt.

Interested in the FN, but will check Stag also thanks. Truth is I have heard the name Stag before but don't know their quality. Always trusted Colt and Bushmaster, but FN well yeah.....thanks

Says A2 in title, but specs say it's a flat top with carry handle: http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-20-classic-a2-rifle.html

I really enjoy my 20inA2 iron sights and funny thing is at the range with all the cool new ar's shooting with red dot my groups are way better then there's if you know how to use old school irons they can be very accurate. Its just not the flavor of the year

and I do have moden ar carbins but my a2 goes with me most of the time
