    Save up for something like this:

    A Colt 6920 would be great as well. I would regard your Bushy carbon 15 as a cheap Chinese copy of an ar15 (though it is made in the US).

    I don't say this often, but you should EXPECT it to fail.

    There are many good options and we'll do our best to supply them to you. Do your best to unload it...the climate is still right for that.

    A bit excessive dont ya think?? You can just as easily accomplish that with a bicycle.
    Kidding aside, OP, you need to get out of it... Atleast see what else your LGS can get for you in lieu of the C15.

    Jumping on the pile here to say, get out of the layaway.
    The Bushmaster should not be considered for home defense.
    Even more so their Carbon-15 line.

    They are illigetimate weapons that have no real purpose other than to attract retards to the gun community.

    I owned one of those a while back (I only paid $580.00 for it btw) DO NOT GO THROUGH WITH IT! I couldn't wait to get something different! There are plenty of options out there if you just look hard enough. I'm sure one of the FAR more experienced members on here could help walk you through a better choice. I upgraded to a Spikes / BCM combo and I couldn't be happier!

    I think the concensus here is, don't ****ing bother. If its for HD, then really don't ****ing bother. Get something of KNOWN quality, spend the xtra $$$$, you will not be sorry.

    Rifles have been becoming more available over the past couple weeks. I would take the carbon 15 off lay away and just buy a quality rifle. That 900 bucks could be put towards many better options.

    If you want to buy something immeadiately, Grant has the S&W M&P MOE for not much more than the carbon 15 and it will be a much better rifle.

    And this is why friends are friends, and acquaintances are acquaintances.

    I would hold out for something much better if HD is a consideration. That C-15 will probably make you cry someday.

    A work friend was all excited about his new DPMS that he 'scored' in February. I really didn't like popping his bubble, but that's what friends are for. I almost slapped him when he told me how much it cost. Price is what you pay, value is what you get. I'm sure it will make a fine range plinker.

    In past 2 weeks I've seen or head about, five Colt 6920 Magpul Editions at 3 different Walmarts for $1097. Which is virtually the same price the Grant sells them for, so watch for G & R to get them back in stock. 2 of the 5 have been purchased by friends, one in black and one in FDE.

    Get out of the layaway if at all possible and save up a couple hundred more.

    I've never owned a carbon myself. The only time I have seen one is at our local range. I don't think it ever fired. The poor guy spent over 2 hours working on it. About 3 months later he was back-and spent the entire time working on it again.
