    Bushmaster/Compass Lake Engineering AR15 from the CMP

    Back in July of 2001 a friend of mine purchased a limited edition CMPicon engraved Bushmaster/Compass Lake Engineering AR15 from the CMP. He is thinking about selling it and I was hoping someone here might have some information or advice. I know it has the chrome Kreiger Barrel and polished crown. He bought the most expensive version and since has addwd a weight to the stock. The rifle has on about 100 rounds through it and comes with all the paperwork. Thanks!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    Check the CLE website for the price of a similarly outfitted AR.

    My guess would be somewhere between 1000 and 1200 depending on how decent the trigger is.

    Wait a minute . . . a CHROME Kreiger barrel? You must mean stainless?

    I missed the Kreiger part. Make it 1200 to 1400.

    Compass Lake is one of the top AR builders in the US. Heavily represented at Camp Perry.

    To be accurate.

    1. These were not a limited edition. Something sold as a limited edition say right up front that we are only selling this many. Anybody could buy one of these thru a CMP affiliated club (I know. I own one.) They discontinued the program after a few years. So, at best it could be said they were made for a limited time period.

    2. I don't think that logo is laser engraved, The only laser engraving was on the barrel by CLE and only for one year (I know. I own one). They stopped doing it because it raised a challenge that they were no longer service grade and could only compete as a match rifle.

    3. As far as the price.. well, you have the invoice. You know what it sold for. $1235.00 or $1250.00. Somewhere around there. Unfired.

    4. The CLE trigger has been bad mouthed by a number of shooters. It was a good trigger for its time and didn't give you any trouble if properly maintained but there are much better triggers now.

    These are probably the reasons why no bid met your reserve.

    Hope this helps...

    My Dad shoots the same gun, no collector value however it is a top-notch AR it was offered at a discount to Thru the CMPicon. IT is a top notch NRA-CMP service rifle and I kick myself for not buying one when I could. He put a Gisselle trigger in his.
