Thamesvalley has been a go to for his armourer reports for several years now.

It's possible that the IBUS marked receivers are ones built specifically for the civillian market by Edenpine/Bushmaster, whereas those without, are leftovers from the original Australian manufacturer (Armtech) and military trials...just a thought.
