While at work, I have to use the issued rifles, Bushmaster's and S&W M&P's. No option.
My own time is a different matter.
I have been using a Colt 6920 for training classes, and to have available, should "issues from work follow me home". Prior to the purchase of this 6920 in 2004, I have been using a Colt 6520.
I am satisfied with both of these Colt carbines. So much so that in the winter of 2006, I bought two additional Colt 6920's to set aside for my two kids, in case of any future bans.
I have read alot of Colt bashing on the internet, including some here. I have come to learn that there are a few quality guns out there in addition to the Colt, such as Noveske and LMT which many say are probably equal to or better than the Colt 6920.
After all of the Colt bashing threads on the various web sites, I am left to wonder if the quality of the Noveske's or the LMT's is such that I should consider selling off my Colts and replacing them with another manufacture's AR?
I didn't buy the guns I have because I am that attached to pictures of ponies. I bought them because I felt that they represented the best quality product I could obtain, after researching the subject as much as possible prior to purchasing these guns.
Some of the internet threads get into Colt bashing to the point I think I should feel I made a poor choice in choosing the 6920's.
If I ever needed my 6920, aside form training, then things have gotten rather ugly while off duty. It must work when needed. Period.
I don't know what the future holds for my children, so I wanted to set aside the best carbine/pistol combo I could afford for them. At the time I purchased their guns, I felt the 6920 was a wise choice. Now I am starting to have doubts.
Would you be concerned if you had to rely on a Colt 6920 as your only AR?
