So far,I like what I see,very light and Bushmasters Reputation is rather good....Looking for a companion to my Long Range AR15 Varminter,but light,fast and handy for calling Coyotes in Close(Will top it with a good red dot)..Thanks!

I got a carbon 14 type 97 AR15 pistol when they came out ~8 years ago.

I paid $1k.
The chamber was too tight.
It was too noisy.
I couldn't hit anything.

They went mag well up, and Bushmaster bought them.
The rifles may be ok.
