One question though: Just how durable is it?
Ahhhh, nothing like gun porn to bring people together (although you should read and consider the dissenters)
Sweet. LOL. One question though: Just how durable is it?
I would imagine the Bush is decent quality. I have heard of some of the other Carbon brands exploding.
My main gripe is muzzle energy.
The Bushmaster 7.25" barrel gives 1700 fps with 62 grains.
The FN does 31 grains at 2133 fps.
Taking the ratios of kinetic energy it looks like the Bush will have 27% more energy than the FN.
A 18" 223 barrel should yield 2800 fps meaning the pistol has only 36% of the KE of the rifle.
A 7.25 barrel is a silly thing to use with 223. It should at least be 10 if not 14".
