Bushmaster QRC

sobi1998 · Jul 26, 2017

My friend is interested in a first time AR-15. He found the bushmaster QRC through budsgunshop
I was recommending a PSA upper + parts for him because it'd be cheaper but I wanna get y'all's opinion on it for him
Thanks

Meh, whatever honestly. Both make good gun and can put out a lemon.

Biggest thing is tell him to get the rifle set up how he wants it. Stock, grip, fore end, whatever. Cheaper to buy it like that than upgrade it later.

I'd go with the PSA personally. You can get better options from PSA for about the same price.

I've got a Bushmaster and a PSA. I like them both. If he goes with PSA, I recommend one of their premium uppers. Match it with the Classic lower and a PSA premium BCG. Don't forget a charging handle.

Nothing wrong with the Bushmaster either, and that looks like a decent price.
Looks like it also comes with a red dot.

So, this http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-...ium-upper-without-bcg-or-charging-handle.html

plus this http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-ar-15-complete-blem-lower-classic-edition-no-magazine.html

and this http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-...-7075-t6-forged-mil-spec-charging-handle.html

And Bob's your uncle for $520 plus shipping on the upper. But he still needs an optic or rear sight

There are a lot of great options out there. I tend to treat it a lot like my bike. If it's something cool and I think it would look great, I may go out and get it. If it's something to do with the performance, I do research. I look around to find exactly what I want. Find out from others how well it performs, how long it lasts and if are there any drawbacks.

Bottom line, make it your own. Don't get something on the fact that Joe Blow down the street has one so it must be good.

I'd not recommend that particular model. No front sight, and no way to easily mount a front sight without changing the gas block. I know it has a red dot, but for that price it's gotta be a pretty low end optic. I run iron sights on all my rifles, and my optics are mostly Aimpoint.
