I've done a bit of reading to get educated before buying an AR. I just got my first ever handgun a couple months ago, already picked out my first shotgun which I should have in a couple weeks. Neither of these purchases can begin to compare with how much there is to know before buying an AR. I'm overwhelmed
Based on what I've read, I'm just going to stick with Colt. I know I may be paying a bit of a premium for the name, but I am hoping it will hold its value better and I'm not about to try to pick a lower and upper and put those together. Much less buy a brand with potential QC issues that I'm not qualified to fix.
My AR will be used for self defense and fun at the range. I have already looked in to several places that provide AR training, so I will make sure that is budgeted for, as it is even more important than selecting the appropriate firearm.
With that said, what route should I go? Just buy a new LE6920 and EOTech and be done with it? Or do I save a little more money and then buy a LE6920 SOCOM or a LE6940? I can't tell much of a difference between them (besides the rail) and I'm not even sure what I'd use the rail for. I doubt I'll be using it to launch grenades
While many of you have multiple ARs, I plan on buying one and sticking with it for a while, so I'd just assume get a nice one the first time around rather than kick myself 6 months later.
Thanks
