Item Description
Bryant Ridge Co. is pleased to present this desirable semi-automatic rifle for a penny-start auction; this is the Bushmaster (B.F.I.) XM15-E2S!
This rifle features a lead-weighted buttstock, which shifts the balance rearward and helps tame recoil and muzzle rise—useful for follow-up shots and steadier offhand or prone shooting. While the added mass improves perceived stability, it increases overall carry weight and can accelerate wear where the weight is fitted; inspect the stock for secure bedding and any cracking around the weight pocket. Also, be mindful of corrosion or lead exposure in older installations and have a qualified gunsmith verify the installation and safe structural integrity before firing or modifying the stock.

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Bushmaster XM15-E2S is Bushmaster’s take on the AR-15/M4 pattern carbine family: a semi-automatic, direct-impingement (AR-style) rifle offered in 5.56×45mm NATO/.223 Remington with 16" and 20" barrel options and construction that mixes forged 7075-T6 aluminum receivers with heat-treated steel barrels and mil-spec components. Its ergonomics and controls follow the familiar M4/A2 geometry — A2 front sight post options, carrying handle/flat-top receivers or optic-ready flats, a carbine-length gas system on 16" models, and a telescoping adjustable stock — making it immediately familiar to anyone used to the AR-15 family. Bushmaster marketed the E2S variants as "patrolman" and "super-light" carbines at various times, offering different barrel profiles (including M4-profile 16" barrels), elevated rail sections on some optic-ready models, and standard STANAG magazine compatibility; the platform was widely adopted by civilian shooters, law-enforcement agencies, and appeared in multiple commercial configurations over the 1990s–2010s. In practical terms, the XM15-E2S is valued for its straightforward reliability, parts commonality with the AR-15 ecosystem, and modularity: owners can readily fit optics, lights, aftermarket triggers, stocks, and handguards, and spare parts and magazines are widely available. Accuracy and handling are typical for a rifle of this class — plenty precise for duty-use and practical defensive or sporting roles when paired with a quality barrel and proper ammunition — while the carbine-length gas system on 16" models tends to yield manageable recoil and reliable cycling with a wide range of factory loads. Common buyer considerations include checking for correct headspacing and bolt/bolt-carrier condition on older examples, inspecting the gas key staking and extractor wear (standard AR-15 maintenance items), and confirming local legal status because the XM15 series has been specifically regulated or named in certain state assault-weapon lists. For those seeking a classic, "American-made" AR-pattern carbine that balances proven ergonomics, abundant aftermarket support, and a variety of factory configurations, the XM15-E2S remains a sensible, well-understood choice.
