Default Acr

Okay, on the min site its called the remington acr. However, where do you find it? Bushamasters site, as bushmaster ACR. Whats it called at the gunstore? Bushmaster ACR. Bushmaster makes it, just because there owned by the same parent company dowsnt make it a remington. Why is it called the remington on min site?

Because the movie is trying to portray it as the military full auto variant. That's the variant Remington makes, the military/Law Enforcement variant, which is in full automatic. Bushmaster makes the exact same rifle in all its modular glory, but only in semi-auto. That is the only difference between the two companies. Remington just got the rights to make the full auto and Bushmaster is all on the civilian variant, though I thing Remington does make a civilian variant, but Bushmaster seem to have gotten the better deal since it gets to market more to civilians.

Bushmaster manufactures them all, and i know there going for LE sales. So remington is just slapping their brand name on the side?
