do it yourself and don't worry if you scratch it up. it will eventually get that way anyhow if you use it.

its far more beneficial for you to learn how it goes together than to let someone else do it so barbie doesn't look ugly


hell, i've assembled dozens and still manage to make a nick on it here or there.


also, you can cover up any dings with this

I just youtubed it and put mine together. Nothing to it. Seriously, nothing to it at all.

Same here. Was easy to do. I put blue painters tape around everything, on everything to keep the scratches and dings to a minimum. Worked out very well.

Is this the carbon composite gun? If so I just dont see how it would hold up to the abuse and wear n tear. Bushmaster isn't a bad gun, I just would not buy one.

I just hope all these recent shootings don't start the push for gun control again.

2 of my ammo shelves broke today.

Theory
To much ammo or shelves to week.

Conclusion
Shelves to weak.

Can build one from PSA right now for $550. And won't be that carbon composite crap.

My son questions the integrity of my ammo shelf - he thinks a failure is imminent.

I just bought another 250 5.56mm, but left them on the ground. Problem solved.
