I expect to get enough money soon for an AR (I kept buying some surplus rifles and other stuff in the past months, kind of annoying.) I am looking at the Bushmasterb XM15 E2S A3 20" . Thanks for you guys' recommendation I find it from the AIM, but I do have the following questions:
1. Is the Bushmaster rifle from AIM usually good? I don't want to get a lemon and send it back to Bushmaster?
2. Most importantly, I don't mind the heavy barrel on this XM15, but I may want to buy an upper later after the AWB sunset, which might be 16" barrel with lighter contour, flash hidder, ... , all the cool things. My question is: Is it legal to put such a post "post ban" uppper on the post ban lower? or I have to wait until Sep. to buy a post post ban rifle to make this legal?
3. What is the advantage and disadvantage of a heavy barrel vs. a standard government barrel in a semi-auto AR?
Thanks, and wish the AWB never back again!
