Sic semper tyrannis.
I hear you but based on what I read, Colt + Colt = COLT!
If I was going to go with anything else, BCM comes as close as anyone to Colt as far as meeting quality standards based on what I have read so far. I don't care if I'm a poserI'd rather be a poser with a high quality firearm than a guy with a unique whatchamacallit with buyer's remorse.
Now with that being said, I think furniture from someone like Magpul can be changed as mentioned above without any kind of quality concerns, but I'm quite convinced I will stick with Colt for every critical part. Cost be damned.
Your setup may be fantastic, but I'm not educated enough to know what upper + lower will result in something as good as Colt. So, I'll be a brand whore and stick with the sure thing.
We went off track here when Mistwolf accidentally used the wrong number. I'm pretty sure he meant the 6720, which has a lightweight 1:7 barrel, and when I bought mine, a Matech Iron rear sight (military issue.) The 6721 is an HBAR 1:9 variant.

This forum is a blessing. It has tons of information from professional shooters to the amateur shooters.
Colt set the standard and they are mighty fine weapons. Take your time and do your research!

Get the colt. Then look into bcm for your second....because one just isn't enough.

i went with a daniel defense for my first AR. had all the nice features i was looking for. i do have a cousin whose getting the 6920 MOE. In my opinion. you simply cant go wrong with a 6920, comes with all the basic things you need. minus training, ammo, sling and light.. perfect platform to start off with! forget the cheap sportical, dont even let one cross your mind (unless on a supertight budget) colt will be just fine!!!reason i got the DD though, i had done more research on them first.

I would go along with this choice or this.

You're getting an Aimpoint Pro, which is considered an excellent red dot sight for the money. They go for $400-$430 a pop. Daniel Defense carbines are right up there in quality. Just add a set of sights and a few quality magazines and you're off to the races with a great package.
