Search is over. Went to the gun show today, not a Rock River in sight and few Bushys. There were Olys out the wazoo and some overpriced Colts and Armalites.

I found a Bushy I like at a gun show dealer I've used before, but his price seemed high. I called a local shop I like and they had one just like it on the shelf for $50 less.

I ended up with a Bushmaster XM-15 'noban' M4 type carbine with 16" barrel. Had the collapsable stock, bayonet lug, flat top, etc. Didn't have the railed handguard, but I may add that later.

I did find some bargains at the gunshow, found a Aimpoint with mount for $350, 500 rounds of 55gr FMJ for 89 and some other goodies.

Took the whole deal down to our local range and had it sighted in no time at all.

Tomorrow it debuts at our local 3 gun match.

Thanks for the help, wish me luck!

Good luck and congratulations.

Just be sure you don't use an 'olympic' brand ammo in your ar15 (or anywhere else, for that matter)
