Any gun can run fine, Shruby included, a great running gun is nothing to shun, regardless the rollmark.![]()
If I hadn't started with a BM I may have never learned how to work on this platform like I have.
I'm happy with how mine's turned out, if I had it to do over again I would have started from scratch though.
The only few things I've done to mine to get it like I wanted is -
Staked receiver extension nut
BCM bolt carrier group
McFarland one piece gas ring
BCMGunfighter Charging Handle (medium)
Shaved FSB
Daniel Defense LITE 10.0 hand rail
YH Phantom FS
Daniel Defense QD rear sling attachment plate
Daniel Defense front rail sling swivel
Harris BRM-S bipod w/ Larue LT706 QD mount
Troy Tritium HK folding front sight
Troy Tritium Di-Optic folding rear sight
ACOG TA33G-H
Mil-Spec receiver extension
Sprinco "red" spring w/ "H" buffer
Magpul CTR stock
Magpul MOE grip w/ bolt & fire pin storage mod
Magpul B.A.D.
Magpul AFG
Geissele SSA trigger
See.....that's it![]()

Thanks guys for backing me . I did not know when I started this tred I would get flamed for owning a bushmaster . I have staked the keys and the castlenut I put a brovo comp. black insert and spring and the 'o' ring I have had it for 4yrs and have put a lot of rounds though it with no trouble like 1,000 rds and a lot of monarch stealcase with no ftf fte it just ate it up like candy
What he said;
If this is your SOP, then a BM will probably serve you well for a long time. Many guys here will put 1000+ rounds through a carbine in a 2-3 day training class. This is usually when the lesser brands will begin to have problems. No one here intended to flame you, txbrenek. The purpose of this site is to help educate it's members on the M4 type carbines, not flame those who don't own a top shelf carbine. You have already made corrections to BM's most common faults. May I also suggest getting a good bolt, at least to have on hand for a spare.
good luck
This thread really morphed,
The OP simply asked if there were any other BM owners here.
This site is not a BM, Oly, DP**, fan site. This site was set up by pros to help inform and educate (IMO). TOS is known as an AR "anything" fan site. I've never seen anyone post anything on lower tier brands without receiving suggestions on where to look in order to gain more knowledge of AR brands and any improvements they may want to consider. I'm really thankful for the BM owners who posted with the corrections/improvements they have made, I did the same thing when I had my last BM. I hope the OP came away with more knowledge and new things to think about. I feel it would be a disservice to pat him on the back and say "job well done" and send him on his way, especially if he intends to protect him and his with it. I only see these posts go south when unknowledge people step forward and start making claims that my X is "just as good as" Y. Many people have worked hard, for no reward, to get the most accurate information available to us "regular" people. Hopefully a few people have been helped by this thread.
I think most will pick that up after just a few minutes of reading information here.![]()
