That's the second version of the original Bushmaster rifle. I had one of the even earlier versions with the maple stock.
There internal operating system was similar to the Kalashnikov. Mine functioned well, as long as you didn't try to feed it reloads.
They date to the early 70's. Started out in N. Carolina then moved to Maine. The currently manufactured AR clones date to the early 90's. Don't believe those original ones, as shown on the auction were made any later then the late 80's.

That particular model of rifle was made by Gwinn Arms of Winston-Salem, NC, between 1972 and 1974.

Its as ugly as an Mac-10.
I would not mind adding to my collection, but the safe is FULL!
Plus Mama, said no more guns, unless she finds one that she wants.
Yeah so what I'm whipped!
But I have one heck of a wife, ask anyone who knows her.

It looks like an AR and and AK mated and became the AKR?[V]
Anybody comes through that door, you put two in the chest and one in the head!0 -
Is it just me or does the reciever on that look like sheet metal crap? On another note I highly doubt that A much superior AR would mate with an AK (just my opinion so noone harp on me[:)]) Although come to think of it an HK and And AR would make a fantastic couple and thier children would be sweet. [:)] I know Im nuts lol
