Clearance priced? :o If that is true you might want to steer clear if the kit is becoming discontinued as there might not be anymore replacement parts. I have been looking at the Adams arms kits as well as a POF conversion. If Bushy will not be discontinuing the kit and replacement parts will still be available the Bushy kit had a good review in one of the mags i have floating around here.


Might be something to consider, but Bushy was selling them like hot cakes at SHOT and I saw a bunch of SEALS buying them for their own personal weapons..t

What's this I read and hear about the piston guns exhibiting excess carrier tilt and tearing up the buffer tubes? Do these kits include a different buffer? I was looking at the "www.heavybuffers.com" web site and just happen to catch my eye about the anti-tilt buffers. They make a special buffer for piston guns.

Whew! Thanks for the clarifiction. I thought it seemed odd for BM to discontinue these as they are the in thing at the moment.
