A lot of these companies have rifles that they build for specific purposes, i.e. some are accuracy oriented, others are run of the mill carbines, and some are blends of both/other. Additionally, a lot of these companies have numerous models and options that cover various applications and needs based not only on quality, but price and consumer needs. Therefor, it is unwise and frankly illogic to simply "rank" them on a list of which is "best", as the "best" is subjective to the person using it.
I am going to assume that you are a fairly new user and new to ARs. I'd recommend you do some research and thoroughly read through the relevant stickies in the "New to Firearms/shooting" and "AR Technical Dicussion" forums.
Don't buy what's best because some guy on a forum said it was. Buy what's best because you did your research and have a thorough understanding of what makes it "the best".
The last thing I suggest is, as a likely new AR user, to skip the piston ARs like LWRC, POF, Ruger, and the LMT offerings for various reasons. Beside those brands, and also including LMT in this, I see a lot of good ARs that would serve most people well.

The ones I listed as a tie really do come down to user preference and you won't be making a bad choice with any of them IMHO. Best bang for the buck is the Knights SR-15 E3 in my opinion though. It comes ready to go out of the box with everything you'll need aside from an optic.

Thank you!
I was just looking for a general opinion on these companies. But your just telling it like it is. Im not quite ready to build. Just want to buy and outofthebox setup thats built with quality and durability. Once I own one, Ill go from there, on building one down the road. I have my eye on either a Daniel Defense or a Knights.

If you have the cash, I don't think you'll find a single person here that wouldn't recommend the KAC SR-15E3. You could probably say the same for the Daniel Defense. That said, between the two, most people would say grab the KAC if you can swing it. It's in a class of its own.
