Colt, BCM or DD FWIW
Pass.
Do yourself a favor and stick to AR's that have proven track records.
I have a M400, the BCG is shabby and I finally got mine working perfect after 300 dollars more and headaches due to gas leak in the bolt carrier group which was hard to figure out. Or, better yet, buy a BCM lower and a upper or Spikes or DD. I am making my own from now on!![]()
Op I'm gonna do you a solid and leave with this link. It would behoove you to read and search before you ask ?s.

don't even try to take my weapons away from me and my peoples...
this is why i joined this forum...http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=503481

I have one and like it, all reviews ive read, others have liked them. This is a colt, dd, bcm board. See the link below, Its an unboxing of a M-400, and has nice pics the OP did a lot of work doing it, very nice..
If you wait you will be able to get a colt for that price.There starting to drop. My local gunstore has plenty of m-4s {colt, windhams,etc} in stock ,now nobodys buying them.. But any talk of AW or extended mag. bans will drive it back up again over night. Even though ive read on this board of people with bushmasters with 10,000 rnds through them they are disliked here.
And i guess iam the only one who has been treated very well with sigs cust.service? But they have done everything asked of them including shipping me a free magpul moe stock and letting me keep the org. M-4 stock. One guy here had a problem with one, he sent it off and it was back on his door step in 9 days, thats not bad. And yes the leaky gas key would have been covered under the warranty. I think they will prove themselves, but there so new to the market no one has shot one enough to see. Time will tell.

As you can tell by vicious post this is the kind flame you will get from trying to answer your post in an honest light...profane and all... you would think any one would know that colt dd or bcm arent hobby grade.
You will get a lot of answers from people that dont even own one,or never even shot one. Ive seen rock rivers with thousands of rounds through them but their consd. hobby grade. Ive been driving chevys for 25 years but they also make fords and dodges. What ever you buy the parts are everywere out there if something breaks...Read the be an informed buyer section here. It will answer alot of things for you as per what to look for in a M-4....

For me, $1150 is Colt money, not SIG money.
You're new around here, aren't you? There are well respected knowledgeable folks on this board who have first hand experience with the failure rate of certain brands and not with just one or two samples. In one case in particular, a member had to deal with a high failure rate out of a shipment of roughly one hundred rifles.
I have had a chance to sample a wide variety of firearms in my life and my own experiences. All companies have had problems with quality control and customer service. Decades ago, I came to the realization that there are brands that simply aren't worth taking a risk on. There are firearms that aren't worth the effort bringing the occasional problem child up to speed. I wouldn't give the time of day to Rossi or Taurus, just to name a couple. There are those who would argue with me. So be it. I will not waste another dollar or any more of my time on either one. Cheap brands are not worth the frustration. It's even worse when a cheap brand offers a product for the same price or more. It boggles the mind further when the cheap brand takes the same firearm, dresses it up with cheap features and demands a premium price!
In all seriousness, what is a better value? A Windham Weaponry AR15 MPC M4 A3 5.56/223 16" W/Carry Handle, 30 Rnd Mag for $1049.99? (Impact Guns)
Or a Colt 6920 for $1155? (G&R Tactical)
Which is a better value here- Bean Firearms Co. Semi-Automatic, Piston Driven, Billet Machined AR15, 16" for $1999.99? (Impact Guns)
Or a BCM RECCE 14.5 MOD 0 FDE for $1392.00? (G&R Tactical)
jerparker1, I think you could do better than the Sig M400 MOE for $1127
-and that is an answer given in an honest light
