Does anyone have experience with any of the above AR's?

No experience. Lots of sales going on for Father's Day I hear.

I think the anderson arms/ptac I put together is dayum good for the money. I have about 485 in the whole thing including shipping and tax. I bought the lower from a lgs and ordered a parts kit and upper from PSA. I took a basic carbine course(+/-300rds.) and used it. It did fine. No problems. Will it should MOA, no, but it will shoot minute of dead.

Get a Windham Weaponry, not the new bushmasters, they are not made by the same people.

I have sold LOTS of DTI kits. Only had a problem with two of them and one of those was simply them shipping the wrong upper with the kit. The second was a headspace issue. Both times I shipped teh uppers back on a MOnday and had the correct parts in hand by Friday. DTI covered the shipping too. My personal ARs are built using DTI parts as well. My M4 will shoot MOA all day with 55gr FMJ. You can get one of their kits for around 450.00 with shipping and a PSA blemished (which really isn't that I can tell) lower for 59.00 before shipping and you are good to go.

Bushmaster=Windham Weaponry. Older bushmasters, yes Newer bushmasters are far inferior to WW Why is that? Not doubting, just curious.

Quality control? I didnt know the new bushmasters where crappy! I have Noveske, Spikes Tatical, LWRC-M6, and Bushmasters. Bushmaster XM-15 E2S is my got-to work horse gun!I have 2 of them. 1 beside my bed has Daniels Defense M4 12in rail, Aim point Pro , PEQ-15 lazer, 3 lb wilson tac-trigger, and White Moutain 1-7 twist barrel. It has 3000 plus rounds threw it . I quess I ONLY can recommend the older bushmasters then, if Yall say the new ones are that good!

Original Bushmaster sold out, the new owners shut down the business in Windham and moved. The new Bushmasters are not made as well as the original. The original owner of Bushmaster re-opened the plant and started making AR's again but under the name Windham Weaponry. I bought one back in January, love the thing, I have only put about 500 rounds through it but it shoots great and no miss feeds using cheap ammo, it also has a transferrable lifetime warranty on it.

How hard are they to build? Do you have a store somewhere ?
