If you're new to ARs I'd recommend one of two things.
A basic gun like a Colt 6920, DDM4, Centurion gun, or BCM4(mid).
Buy ammo, develop a skillset, and change the gun as needed.
Or.
KAC SR-15 for around $1800, and is far superior in design to the LWRCi guns (or any GP gun on the American market at the minute) and just buy a sling, light, and learn to use it. You won't really have to worry about rails, ambi-controls, stock, or sights, or anything. As it's all there.
I don't recommend either AR-15 you're looking at, and it's very hard to justify $4500 on an AR. Especially when it's from a company that doesn't have as much experience as the companies I mentioned, nor do they produce them to a known spec. (That I know of.)
I hope my advice helps.
(Other recommended products for a new guy. VTAC sling. Gear Sector Light Mounts. SureFire lights. Magpul PMAGS. Aimpoint RDS. Tango Down or Magpul pistol grips. BCM also makes a very good simple chest rig if you need one. For optic mounts: KAC, Bobro, Daniel Defence, and American Defense MFG.)
Everything ^ he said and whatever you do, do not take advice from anyone on NJGunForums.
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
