DPMS or Bushmaster

[Bill73]

In the past I've owned a Bushmaster and five Colts. Now I own one Colt and a just purchased DPMS. The DPMS runs perfectly, the fit and finish is just as good as any Colt I have owned and the trigger pull is better. Needless to say, it cost a heck of a lot less.

I voted for DPMS because Sabre Defense wasn't on the list.
My DPMS AP4 is awesome!!! Still working on it---furniture and stuff
Got a new DPMS BA-M12 upper "in the works" My first "put together"
Also have a Colt HBAR 24" SS Bull that is accurate as "hell" but I'm having some problems with it.
My Sabre is a "custom build" and of the 3--it's the "best"

Bushmasters come standard with chrome-lined barrels. DPMS rifles do not.

What is the importance of a chrome barrel

Bushmasters come standard with chrome-lined barrels. DPMS rifles do not.

Maybe like 10 years ago or more...most of the DPMS rifles have chrome lined bores. Yes you have to be sure you pick one with a chrome bore if that's what you want.

Anyway, I have two DPMS rifles an M4gery (with crome bore) and a varmint with SS bull bbl...both have been 100% reliable except when I used a ProMag magazine POS that wouldn't feed. All other mags I have work fine.
