    Lower Receiver Flashing

    Hello, I've been looking at some Bushmasters for a play/range gun lately. As I was inspecting 2 identical Patrolman models, I noticed the machining on the front of the magwell was different between the two. I understand that during the forging process there is flashing here that needs to be removed. I would assume it's CNC milled off, but does anyone know for sure?

    One of the prints references the flash in the trigger area as being allowed. Just a guess but the forging drawing probably mentions it and maybe how much is allowed. Most remove it now because beauty sells but I imagine a certain amount is allowed by the drawing. It is present on a lot of older lowers of different brands at the rear curve, front of the mag well, and in the trigger area around the curve.

    Please answer me a question. Why on earth would you buy a Bushmaster when for a couple hundred bucks more you could buy a real rifle?
