bushmaster pump??

[pookachu32]

hey i just scored an bushmaster pump gun and an F1 illustrator(i think) from my cousin who used to play way back when... i'm not really a fan of these old school guns and i was wondering if anyone knows anything about this bushmaster? is it a good gun? who makes it? etc... i know this is an automags owners forum but i was just wondering if you guys could help me out. thanks

The illustrator is pretty close to the exact same design as todays brass eagle raptor, only it was made well.

The bushmaster was made by LineSI which (forgive me if I mess this up) consisted of some of the present owners of ICD. They're pretty sweet little pumps.

Neither one hold a lot of resale value, but do have some value from the collector standpoint. I'm always looking for older markers to go on my "wall of shame" so if you decide you'd like to sell either of them or possibly trade them for something a little more modern please get ahold of me.

The Bushmaster pump by LineSI was the defacto pump marker of it's time, much like the mag in the tourny scene in the early 90's, almost everyone had one for it's silky smooth action.

The bushmaster is still a very good pump gun..If you decide to sell it let me know..


Lins SI was owned by Ross Alexander..

they're junk - you don't want them - I'll take them off your hands for $50!! (heheheh, just kidding - check the old guns owners group site and forum - http://www.pentestone.com/OGOG/
and - http://www.pentestone.com/cgi-bin/ul...?ubb=forum&f=1 (owned, no pop-ups))

Like others said - The Bushmaster was made by Line Si. It was "THE" gun to have from the mid 80s to the early 90s. Navarone used them exclusively and won just about anything they entered.

The are VERY well made - very rugged. Jerry Dobbins and Larry Alexander (er i think thats his name) ran Line Si. Jerry later created ICD and contined on with the Bushmaster name with the Bushmaster 2000.

The F1 was made by fastech and is an early blow back - which is what the spyder and everyone refined and copied.

There is a market for both - butneither are worth a whole lot. Depending on condition, who you sell to, They will fetch $50-$150 each probably.

If you got pics - send them to me - I collect old guns.

I have (until very recently) owned a Line SI Bushmaster Deluxe and it is a fantastic pump marker. It now resides in KC with Webby; a much better caretaker than I was.
