Bushmaster AR-15 M4 take down – Disassembly

Very nice video. Thanks for the information and tricks.

Thanks!!!

is this same for qrc rifle?

thanks for the great video and excellent camera work. i recently purchased a used bushmaster and had no owners manual etc with it. the only recommendation i could make is when talking about putting the bolt back into the lower, that pin that you have to rotate has to be in a very precise position or it wont slide into the lower. i just couldnt get my bolt to slide in like on the video and then i realize that pin was hitting. so maybe just a quick mention of that in your video would help novices like myself. again thanks so much. what a great help

on "safe" or on "fire"???

is there a reason you had it on fire and not safe?

is it the same for the bushmaster qrc?

Good Job

Good Video.

that's nice can u tell me what the price on one like that

Good vid.  Best camera work of all I've seen.

Thank u for the tutorial. Helpful

you can take the gas tube of

excellent..thanks

Very easy to understand thanks for sharing

Do you know what size allen tool is needed to swap out the pistol grip? My Colt used a flathead screwdriver, but the Bushie needs an Allen tool. Go figure. Any suggestions?   Thank you

Very Nice Video. I appreciate your good work.

Best on you tube thanks and I would like to see you break down the gas chamber completely I'm sure I could do it but would rather see you do it first

Very well done .see you later

thx for the video gunizzels

Tenniesandhorses, you need to quit living in the past. Newtown is over. Oh and stop watching gun videos on the internet if it scares you. ya wuss . jeez

Actually this was the best cleaning video I've seen. My buddy got back from deployment and was just running through everything I'd need to do to clean it thoroughly and I couldn't remember it. With your video I could just watch it, and go do it. Easy stuff, good video. Thanks.

Thanks for the instructions, it really helps!

It's not a gun issue…….. It never has been and it never will be. It's a human issue…….. So called gun control proponents are only trying to capitalize on murder victims to further their agenda of total control of your lives.

There's a lot of videos on the M4 but NO ONE shows the detailed break down process like you do! Thank you, keep the great videos coming !!! :))

GUNNIZZELS you're an idiot … if you ever operated the weapon as many have in defense of their lives and the defense of teammates you 1) never would set the weapon down on the eo sight 2) would understand that a piston gun is gas operated it's just not direct impingement 3) recognize that a CQ weapon is defined by many more things than barrel length and 4) know how to spell Picatinny and 5) never believe that adding accessories will improve reliability or quality.

And by the way, Nancy Lanza DID in act have her guns locked away. It was her fault for taking her mentally ill son to the shooting range.

Thinking and looking at guns make me sick….. And whenever I see one I think of Newtown.

Hello. I just got an m4. Watcheed the strip video, very good. For the first strip and clean< do you need to oil all the way down to the extractor. If so, could you tell me what appliocation is best when doing so? thank you

god damn M4's are psycho with assembly! i never knew how many small parts went into them and especially when i looked in a parts catalog for AR-15/M4 style rifles how they have spring kits and stuff like damn. they're nice to look at but idk if ill ever get one after watching these assembly/disassembly videos haha

The things I would recommend you look for in a Ar-15 are
1. Piston Operated not gas operated.. makes it easier to clean and allows the ar to be shot in any condition with little cleaning.
2. Depending on what your going to use it for short barrel for home defense (below 14.5") long barrel (higher than 16") for target shooing a 16 inch barrel is a good all round barrel
3. Try get a stock rails for the manufacture if possible (Pigatiene rails) cause that will always be the first accessory u buy

Heres what I will tell you. Its pointless to recommend a certain one because its based on your price range. You could get a DPMS for just a little over $500 dollars or you could buy a colt for just a little over $2000 dollars the only diffrence mainly is the quality of the gun.I like my bushmaster cause its what I could afford and its somewhere in the middle in terms of quality and price. Adding accesories will always improve your gun to make it more reliable and make the quality a little better

ya thanks man

Heh the bubble looks good! 🙂

Chalk it up to a newb learning experience!

@RobertKaydoo hey man thanks for the comment and i will add a bubble telling everyone to do that…. thanks for the input.

Well I just took down and reassembled my AR for the first time. Thanks to this video it went very easily.

One suggestion if you ever remake this video. I see this in the video but you did not specifically say to do it, when reinserting the bolt carrier in to the upper please mention that the bolt needs to be in the forward position. This is so that the pin holding the bolt will be in the correct position when going back in to the upper.

Thanks again for a great video!

Great video! I really liked this because your shots were up close and reasonably steady. You also made good use of repeating the steps to reassemble the bolt after it was finished as a quick review.

I just bought my first AR and have not yet taken it apart. Your video will be a big help. Thank you so much for making this!!

One question: my take down pin is *really* hard to push through. Is this just because the rifle is new? I didn't "level" the rifle as you did when pushing out the pin. Thx!

what kind of fore grip is that and where can I get one?
