Currently own a Daniel Defense M4V5LW and am looking to get another AR.
I like different looking guns/variants compared to purchasing multiples of the exact same gun (ex. WASR+NPAP over WASR+WASR). I like variety, with that said at the end of the day I'd like to have two AR's in different configurations (grip, rails, etc). I've been looking at the: Smith & Wessen M&P15 FNH FN15 Colt LE6920 I've been hearing bad things about modern day Colt finish/quality which is why the other two brands are on my list as well. I'd obviously rather have a Noveske, LaRue, KAK over the above brands but they are also almost twice the price. If we are in the $2000 territory I'd be looking at an X95. |

Variety is good! I survived with two rifles in the late 90's - HD & competition. I learned quickly it's good to have similar set-ups with firearms. Clint Smith: One is none, two is one and three is a good idea. I have two 1911's built exactly the same (two G17) and two AR's set-up similar. I have variety with my 3G rifle and a "clone" Mk12 inspired build.
You have a solid DD in hand with options for optics. I say it comes down to if you want a FSB or BUIS. FSB = Colt 6920. Hard to beat a Colt. The OEM1 lets you build the rifle the way you want. My new Colt OEM1's fit and finish was solid. I bought with a group and all the rifles looked good. Saving for a Noveske is also good. |

I just wanted to thank y'all regards responses. I've been leaning towards the Colt mainly due to the brand name.
I would say I'm an AK guy as I have more of those then ARs, but I like them equally. The AK for its simplicity and wood furniture and the AR for it's light weight, accuracy, and it's unlimited furniture options. Looks like I'll be looking for a LE6920 without furniture so I can piece it together to taste. |
