If you intend on babying the rifle and never allowing to impact anything, it's fine. The polymer of the rifle doesn't handle abuse. IIRC, the Plum Crazy polymer Receivers had similar problems.

The Carbon-15s have problems breaking around pin holes, and I consider them garbage. All the ones that can in the shop were broken in someway or another. IIRC Bushmaster will fix/replace them, don't know their conditions on it. I haven't ever heard anyone say anything nice about them other than they're cheap.

I saw a Bushmaster optics ready AR on Palmetto State Armory for close to that price, and mail in rebate.

My $0.02
