"...those that don't know or don't care."
That is what I mean - a statement that everyone who does not own a [insert flavor of the month] is ignorant or apathetic. You don't know anything about me, no offense, nor how many rifles I have built, my skills (or lack thereof) with a lathe and mill. etc.
I don't own a Bushmaster; maybe you have built more rifles than I have built, and most of my builds are bolt action. But I have used recent Bushmaster barrels on AR builds, and they work fine for their intended purpose. I respectfully object to the implication that I don't know nor care about quality just because I disagree with you.
Buy the barrel, not the brand.
