    Bushmaster XM15 probably from the ban era.

    I’m just asking for information.

    It came with a hard case with Bushmaster logo and serial number, so I believe it was factory built.

    Anything's possible, but all factory A2/A4 Bushmasters that I've seen came with the standard A2 flash suppressor. That muzzle brake looks aftermarket. Also looks like your carrier key needs to be staked.

    I was told it was built to the DC market, slip on non threaded muzzle brake maybe legit.

    Looks like an AK74 style muzzle break

    Bushmaster did offer a carbine with a permanently attached AK-74 style brake on it, the “Shorty AK” I believe it was called. Not impossible they might have done a run of rifles with them too.

    It may be a “ban” gun, but with changes post ban

    The ban ended in 2004. Were flattops a thing yet?

    The add says permanently attached brake, this one may not be permanent because it has a pin and likely not threaded.
