i recently bought a Colt 6920, and I'm looking to get another. either another 6920 or a KAC E3

Are both along the same lines of quality, fit and finish?

is there another topshelf AR out there i could be looking at?

I absolutely love my E3. Since you already have a 6920, I say go for the knights..

If you got the money, buy the KAC and be done with it. Its excellent.

As far as quality, they both are, no question about it. In reality either one will serve you will. Dont worry about either one.

I really liked my e3––- but the proprietary bolt annoyed(more concerned, really) me, so the upper got sold off–– The lower is still total badassness...

god?  hahahah



Can't get much better than Colt, KAC, Nov, LMT, or BCM...

I love both for different reason. The 6920 is a top choice for a stock carbine and the KAC is just as good of a choice but with a ton of bells and whistles. Since you already have have a 6920

I would definitely go with the KAC.

Noveske would be someone Id add in to that mix easily... there for shooters.

Since you have a DI gun, have you given any consideration to a piston gun?  LWRC makes top-shelf piston guns.

I'd get the KAC simply to have something different if  I were you. They certainly are outstanding rifles too.

KAC highest quality AR company in history IMHO

Why not get a suppressor?

LOL. If I had the $$, I'd probably go KAC.

Ha ha ha LMT, BCM, and Colt are good weapons... But you can get a whole hell of a lot better than them. KAC is for sure above them, but still not the best you could get by mixing and matching parts.



I got with the KAC, always have had a hard on for the E3

I personally prefer the KAC. I think they are worth it for their lowers alone. They are completely ambidextrous, they have a very clean 2 stage trigger, and have the coolest rollmark in the biz. I love their uppers as well. E3 bolt, great accuracy, URX rail is surprisingly light, and the buis are awesome. Some people don't like the uppers because they are proprietary. It doesn't really bother me too much, but it is understandable that some would prefer having a few extra parts laying around in case something breaks. I would say get the KAC and if the proprietary bolt bothers you, sell the upper and buy a noveske upper. You can't get much better than a noveske upper and a kac lower. Either way, Colt would not even be in the running for me if it is stacked against a kac. I love Colt, but they are a very basic platform. The KAC already comes with all the upgrades I prefer and all the parts are top notch. Good luck and be sure to post pics once you have made your decision.

Noveske, KAC = Best you can get. Both companies have features no other companies have. The E3 bolt is superb. This class is the Ferrari of the AR world. Performance will absolutely blow your mind, People will gawk at you when you walk buy.

Colt, LMT, BCM = The Porsche or BMW of the AR world. Functions very reliably, the gold standard of the AR world. All other AR's are held to this standard.
