    Better?Accuracy is the same.The Colt will have those weird size trigger pins.Neither one has a good trigger,that is why God invented the Jewell trigger.Some folks want the Colt name.cpermd

    Recently, some of the area dealers around my brother and me have had so many problems with Colt that they stopped carrying them to save themselves shipping on all the ones they were sending back. Some of these were pistols, but my overall opinion is that they have definately fallen from the high esteem with which they were once regarded. I have a 2 Bushmasters and I swear by them.

    Both rifles have chrome lined barrels wich aren't known for their accuracy. Of the 2 I would definately go with a Bushmaster. Try ARmalite, Olympic, or DPMS for a good accurate rifle. All stock triggers on AR's are crap. Replace it with either a JP, a 2 stage, or a Jewel (you woun't regret the cost of the Jewel).
