Hello Jow Forums
fellow europoor here, I want to buy this rifle Windham Weaponry 20" GOVT, is this good value? Colt AR15-A4 is unavailable here, so unless I buy a modern gucci AR15 and modify it afterwards to look like a basic rifle or the WW 20 GOVT seems to be the only option.
Price is 1500USD.

Buy an AKM, stop lusting after ARs with a 300% markup due to import taxes.

Windham weaponry came from what was left of Bushmaster. In the Sates, that rifle sells for about $900. I imagine over where you are, prices for ARs are going to be much higher, so $1500 is probably an OK price.

I have not personally used a Windham rifle, but I did do an M16A2 build with a Windham barrel and it was really nice. Bushmaster made lots of milspec rifles for law enforcement for a long time, so you should expect a good quality milspec rifle. Nothing fancy, you'll be getting a gun that you might pull off the rack of a government armory.

Windham Weaponry is good, they're basically the talent and skill that Bushmaster ditched.

Maybe he wants a better rifle for his purposes?

>Windham Weaponry
nice people, i like doing business with them

Yeah. They do good work, it'll be a good rifle out of the box.
They do a pseudo-A1 style rifle too, which looks pretty good, aside from the incorrect A2 profile barrel and A2 lower receiver (small details to some, but they matter to me).

Actually, I now notice that it's not even an A1 upper, it has a brass deflector, like a Colt 715/Diemaco C7.
Not authentic as an A1, but I actually really like the 715 setup, so maybe this would be a pretty good way to build my ideal rifle.

Windham makes a good rifle.

Windham Weaponry not only makes good weapons, but are good people.

>Bushmaster has plant in Maine
>state that relied heavily on industry - logging, paper mills, machining
>tons of mills close down for the same reasons they did in the rust belt, buying paper from chinkland is cheaper
>Bushmaster is sold to faggy holding company known for running companies into the ground
>faggy holding company shutters their plant in Windham to move it to Jew York
>lots of good people lose their jobs
>on the exact day of the move, the non-compete clause in an old Bushmaster exec's contract expired
>he emailed everyone who had worked at the plant and asked them if they'd "go back in the game with the old man"
>only took him 2 days to secure financing
>almost all of the old workers got their jobs back, with better pay and benefits from what I hear
>within 3 months, their first rifles had rolled off the line
>quality is superb, everyone loves them
>they also regularly give away rifles for charity raffles and auctions in Maine, never been to a gun show that wasn't raffling one off
And as other anons have said, OP, the rifles themselves are excellent. Not ultra-gucci, but just really well made.

Also given that you're a yuropoor, check out the AR parts that Mateba Italia is making.

I own this exact Windham rifle and love it.
It has performed flawlessly for me.
I put an A1 stock on it, a Matech rear sight, and a SureFire light.
It reminds me of my service rifle and is also the gun that I use to teach noguns to shoot with.
Buy it.
