Is this chart a reflection of the components in their guns?

It's a reflection of marketing. Sometimes marketers are telling you the truth when they say "our stuff is the best because XYZ", sometimes they're completely full of shite.

I've never owned a single Bushmaster component (that I know of) but I see them at the bottom of the list. They seemed to do fine during this 10,000 round torture test with minimal maintenance. I have a few ARs and I will almost certainly never put 10,000 rounds through one of them. I might, might go through 10,000 rounds through 3-4 of them combined.
