Question

I have a bushmaster ar15 m4a1 and was wondering what kind of optics there are for it.

It has a fixed carry handle. and a 16inch barrel.

I also wanted to know where i could get good 30round magazines and that dont cost that much. Oh and are the M4 handguards worth getting? Is there a way to mount a flashlight on the bayonet lug? if so how do i do it and where can i find the mount?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I&#039;ve had the best luck with Magpul brand P-mags, I won&#039;t use any other mags for my Bushmaster, I think I bought 3 for $45, so they&#039;re pretty cheap too.  I&#039;ve got M4 HG&#039;s on mine with a picatinny rail underneath, and I&#039;ve got a flaslight mount, and a vert. foregrip.  And if your&#039;e considering optics, I&#039;d get a flattop or A3/A4 upper, so you don&#039;t have to worry about the carry handle, not to mention, optics look pretty goofy on an A1/A2 carry handle upper, just personal opinion though,  

Answer 2

For good mags cheap it&#039;s hard to beat 44mag.com Mark is a great guy and will take care of you.

Go to AR15.com and you&#039;ll get better answers then you will here on your other questions.

They do make a light mout that can go on the FSB.

M4 handgaurds are a personal preference thing. I had them on my RRA until I went with a LaRue freefloated railed HG.

Good luck
