I own one AR15 variant, it is the USR from Arms Tech Ltd in Phoenix, AZ. This is a specialty firearms company.

I must agree that business sense indicates it will probably be a Bushmaster, as Cereberus owns them both:

I believe they mark their barrels with "B MP", and all of their non target or special varmint barrels are chrome lined in chamber and tube.
