I'll throw my lot in with the Colt recommendations as well. For my first 5.56 AR I went with a 6721 and it's worked out well.. I doubt you'll have any regrets with the Colt.. Cheers.. Ron
Colt 6720 or 6920 is very probably THE BEST first AR anyone can own. However, it is by no means a beginners rifle, and will serve you well as long as you live. Contact Grant at G&R tactical for the best prices and service.

As stated above numerous times, Colt 6920. Cant go wrong with the tried and trued. Love mine.
I've had the shitty brand rifles when I first started off in the AR world and now that I've gone to a Colt, the differences are there. I can tell the quality just by holding them.
I wish I hadn't wasted so much time, energy, and money on BM and DPMS. I could have had 2 Colts or a really nice Noveske for the money I wasted on shitty AR's.
Its easier learning from others mistakes and taking advice from those who know what they're talking about, rather than flushing money down the crapper like I did.
