Bushmaster Firearms Introduces the All-New Bravo Zulu

Bushmaster Firearms is a venerable brand with a history of building Proven and reliable firearms. Keeping with that tradition, Bushmaster is excited to introduce the all-new American-made Bravo Zulu (meaning "Job Well Done") available in 5 different configurations.

Each configuration of the Bravo Zulu comes equipped with our Snake Charmer muzzle brake, which significantly reduces felt recoil. Bushmaster Firearms has added the premium BFI free float rail that features MLOK slots and a QD sling swivel mount. The Bravo Zulu utilizes our DM2S two-stage trigger that delivers each shooter with crisp control. It is also available with the BFSIII Binary Firing System.

The Bravo Zulu receivers are manufactured out of 7075-T6 aluminum and are Type III hard coat anodized. The Proven reliable rifle is optics-ready and is furnished with Thril products, including their rugged tactical grip, combat competition stock, and trigger guard.

Our chosen design for the Bravo Zulu maximizes performance with these configurations:
