    No reason you couldn't run a fixed stock on it, one.
    Two, it is very possible it could be more accurate than the 20 inch barrel, especaily if we are comparing a gov barrel to the stainless. Accuracy isn't measured by the length of the barrel. Extra length is only going to guarantee more velocity, to a point, and many here feel that there is no real reason to go to 20 inch barrels for 90% of builds and uses.

    There was a member here that was able to keep all rounds on a steel IPSC target at 600 yards using a BCM 20 inch A4 and an ACOG.

    I recently purchased the BCM A4 Mod 1 from G&R Tactical. It's an outstanding rifle in every way. You would not be disappointed with that choice. IMAG1008-1-1.jpg

    I don't think you could really go wrong with either. They are both known quality made by people who know what they're doing.

    That only requires a 3 MOA system and a good wind-call.

    If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.

    The last thing I want to do is hurt you,
    but it's still on my list.

    Fired 330rds of M855 through my new Colt AR15A4 this weekend. Functioned flawlessly, and had no accuracy trouble with the non F marked FSB.

    GREAT RIFLE.

    Really? Maybe you should conduct a seance and see if any one of the 1000's of bad guys that have been smoke checked by Marines just looking cool with the A4 the past 10+ years agrees with you.

    As far as Colt v.s. BCM. They both put out a high quality product. It just depends on which roll mark you prefer and who you wish to support with your hard earned money. Colt not putting the proper FSB on the initial run of A4's was certainly enough to put off many and rightly so. I've personally handled and fired a few BCM A4's and they are squared away Rifles. Very smooth and very accurate....even make a NSF look good
