    Help in identifying a FSB, please?

    I've been trying to figure out the manufacturer of a front sight base on one of my rifles. It is "F" marked, and on the right side (shooter's perspective) it says, "BOM", followed by what looks to be a diamond with a "9" inside it and then the number "2".

    Thanks.

    What difference does it make?

    It is separate from its barrel and is basically trash.

    How did you deduce that from his post?

    Sheesh. Next time I'll make sure I check with the regular loud-mouths for permission before I ask a question that's not important to them.

    Max,

    I just happened to notice a few of the old Bushmaster FSB's that I have in the armory and they have the BOM marking and another symbol to the left that I can't make out.

    In the future it may help if you identify the manufacturer of your complete weapon or upper.

    Thank you. The gun was a frankenbuild I bought used a while back, so I really don't know.
