    Colt vs BCM

    Hey guys I'm kind of new to the site. I have a Colt 6920 that I love, my brothers girlfriend wants to get him a rifle for Christmas. Her buget is around $1000, I think we've narrowed it down to Colt and BCM. Both I've found for around that amount for a base model. My question; is one any better than the other or is it personal preference? I only have experience with my Colt but I know BCM makes great rifles as well. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Both are great choices. Colt has brand recognition more so than BCM. Both are equal quality. Colt will usually have a higher resale value because people recognize the name. Can't go wrong either way.

    Thanks guys/girls I was leaning towards BCM only because I have a Colt and we've always had different preferences. I'm a sig guy, hes a glock guy ect.. plus I've never shot a BCM so im curious as well.

    BCM seems to have some momentum in the brand recognition, but I always wonder how much all the "gun celebs" endorsement of BCM adds to the price of their guns.

    I would say they are equal in quality but if I had to chose it would be BCM. With BMC's sale page on uppers and current special of a free BCG with purchase of a BCM upper, I would go that route and buy a BCM complete lower from Grant at G&R tactical and call it a day. For around the price of a 6920 you can get a BCM with a Daniel Defense rail or one of the many other configurations BCM offers.
