Bushmaster Recalls all ACR Rifles

[imschur]

Bushmaster Firearms  International, LLC has become aware of a possible  firearms performance issue that  may develop with a small number of ACR  rifles and we are requesting you  discontinue the use of this rifle  immediately, and contact us at your earliest  convenience so that we can  make the necessary arrangements to have the rifle  returned to us for  inspection and update if necessary.

All Bushmaster  produced ACR rifles are impacted by this  notification.    During routine testing,  Bushmaster discovered a design flaw which  could result in multiple rounds  firing continuously when the trigger is  pulled. This unexpected firing of  multiple rounds creates a  potentially dangerous situation.    Since the safety and  quality of our firearms is our utmost concern,  Bushmaster is implementing the  following corrective action plans to  correct the effected firearms as quickly  as possible.

Therefore, we are  requesting your timely assistance with the following action:

1) Please immediately  discontinue the use of your ACR rifle(s).

    Please have the serial # of  your firearms(s) available when you call.

    3) We will provide you with  return shipping instructions and issue you a RMA # (Return Authorization  Number).

    This will assist us in  processing, and updating of your firearm and returning to you as expeditiously  as possible.

    The shipping  address for the return of your firearm is listed below

Whoops is right!  ;D

During routine testing,  Bushmaster discovered a design flaw which  could result in multiple rounds  firing continuously when the trigger is  pulled.       

Think maybe someone grabbed the box of Remington ACR lower parts and put the Bushmaster ACRs together - with Remington auto sears?...  :o <dontknow>

A machine gun without paperwork...Cool!  <thumbsup>

It'd be cool if the firing stopped when you released the trigger.... ;D
