Looking at getting my first AR-15; experienced shooter but never owned a black rifle (have shot them). Considering getting a Colt LE 6920. Any opinions/feedback?
Thanks in advance. |

Trying to do the responsible thing and save for a few months...or at least while these prices are low. May try to order one through the military exchange to get the best price. |

Thank you for all the feed back! Looks like I can't go wrong with the Colt LE 6920. May try to order one through the military exchange to get the best price. Any other recommendations? I was going to go with a build, but after talking with some people, I thing buying my first already assmebed is the best for the budget. Any recommendations for a solid first AR-15? Here are some must haves:
-5.56mm/..223 -Foward assist -Dust cover -Crome Barrel Thanks again for the gouge. |
| I like mine. However I would rather a 1-9 twist barrel as apposed to the 1-7 mine came with. Just easier to find 55 gr ammo vs. heavier stuff for the 1-7. I also changed the trigger and added a compensator. The gun went from fun to shoot to I can't believe I went through that much ammo in such a short time fun! |

THIS. Didn't buy Colt because I bought that 1/9 if you're going to shoot nothing but 55gr there's no reason to get a 1/7 BS. I recently bought myself a colt upper and it has no problem with 55 gr so unless you're using your 1/9 rifle to shoot lighter weight 45 gr soft points I'd recommend 1/7. I get 1 inch groups out of my Colt top half without trying too hard with a carry handle iron 55 gr AE 223 at 50 yards. ETA: I bought the Colt upper to piece together a Colt rifle and so I can shoot 75 gr Hornandy TAPs. |
