Best Bushmaster?

[Bobden]

What do you guys think is the best bushmaster today (rules over all bushy's still in production)?

[Flaco305]

Mine. :D

[JustBunkered]

Bonebreak Bushmaster, Vapor Bushmaster, or GS Bushmaster

IMO there is no great bushmaster stock, you gotta put upgrades into it.

Where would you find these "other" bushmasters like the bonebreak, vapor and GS??

You can find the 3 listed markers at the following:
Bonebrake Bushmaster: www.danbonebrake.com
Vapor Bushmaster: Not Out Yet, But Will Be Found At www.vaporworks.net
GS Bushmaster: This is a very custom gun that GregICD makes. There are two versions, a frostbite and another one I don not know the name of. I am not sure if Greg and ICD makes these anymore, they are rare.

[Kyser]

Ive been to danbonebrake.com and it doesnt show anything. You enter into the site has a congrads msg and thats it, no links to marker upgrades, no links or pics of speciallty markers ect. Help me out cause Id really like to see some of these special markers.

[schoolsukz08]

The GS were older models of b2ks that were out b4 the b2k3 style milling, but in rare quantities. Fortunately i have one and got a good deal on it. Polemos has one as well and also has the rarest of the bushies a thunderstruck

[rock]

were can we find some pics of the thundrstruck, ive never seen it or herd of it.

[JustBunkered]

Search for the ICD-O jewels thread, there is a pic in there

[rhchilipepper4]

Are shocktech B2K2's any good??

Yeah man, custamizing is great and all, but cmon Imp, they're Vapor/Bonebreak/Thunderstrucks! It doesnt get more secks as far as ICD goes unless you want to mill and anno it yourself.

If I had the money, Id get a stock 2k4 and add what I want to, but then Id go out and buy a Vapor or something just to say I have it.

[polemos]

My take :

The following bushies are out of production (they might scare up a GS NEW for you email greg):

Custom body bushmasters are nice, reflex, GS, thunderstrucks, flame are the ones I know of that ICD has made. They keep thier value alot more than stock bodies and are pretty rare.

A sonic (macdev) CAN be updated to take PDS. Sweet bushy even without.

A Eclipse bushy cannot be updated to accept PDS at least from ICD. Great marker also.

If you have the money to spend:

The following are in production:

Swoosh milled 2k4 bushy from ICD. Best stock marker yet, good trigger, good Hpr, Lpr is a little weak IMO, PDS system flat rules!!

Shocktech, Bonebrake, Vaporworks, and Zenitraim all make custom bodied bushmasters that rip straight out of the package.
THey will all cost $800 and up depending on the options.

suggestions:

Get a used teardrop, fishy milled, or Xmilled if you want a cheap bushy to upgrade and shoot.
Get an ICD custom if you want to spend a little more money (My son's GS bushy was $400) and get a custom looking marker that will hold more of its value.
Get an aftermarket custom if you want to spend $$$ on a tourney quality marker.

Price estimate :
$200-$375 for a stock bodied ICD teardrop fishy, or xmill.
$375-$500 for a sonic, eclipse, and some custom ICD stuff.
$500 -$750 for an ICD tricked custom. a NEw B2k4 falls in this catagory.\
$750- and up for a Bonebrake or vapor and zentriam.
THis is by NO means a all inclusive listing, it is generally what you will find bushmasters being bought and sold for IMO. I
have bought and sold 10 ICD marker in the last year and the price ranges reflect what I have posted.

We owned the middle two X-milled and teardrop.

The black x-mill was sold so my son could afford his GS.

[lotus_esprit5]

and what a nice GS it is. love that milling. do you pay for any of your son's stuff, or do they buy it all? i know they have some pretty nice guns.

I have paid half for some stuff. The older son's make enough $$ to upgrade them whenever they want

The 2 teardrop bushmasters I bought for my younger son's.
They have had to pay for all the paint and upgrades though.

Im sure many a teen have asked this of you before, but I might as well try:

Adopt me...

[JustBunkered]

Ohhh I love the teardrop milling...so hot!

If I had to put the different millings in order this is what they'd be:

Unmilled(just cause mine is unmilled :D)
Teardrop
Xmill
Swoosh
Fishy

[ImpYa]

I love the X-Mill :love:.

The swoosh is a close 2nd and the tear drop after it.

I dont really like the fish milled.... it looks like it could be a pain to clean.

Toklas from icd-o has the best X milled IMO. Silver X milled is hot too, I am not really a big fan of the black X mill.

Thats a nice Bushy, I've seen better though. For some reason I seem to like peoples guns who put upgrades into it, not peoples guns who buy their gun with the upgrades already installed, it kinda takes away from the joy of personalization.

[p8ntball-kid21]

It has a SS Longbow, Kaner kit, my personal mag mod ;), CiP Low rise, and a CP rail. :P

BTW he asked the #1 stock Bushy in production.
