    Can't go wrong with either, have built several rifles using BCM barrels, BCG's, and blemish uppers. IMHO they are some of the best source for AR15 accessories and uppers. However, I have never had a problem with any of my complete Colts rifles or uppers I built using Colt parts. I don't have a problem with my issued M4, either.

    You can't go wrong with either; both will give you many enjoyable times at the range, training, or duty use. But I am not a fan of the mid length. I have owned BCM and RRA mid length, and I honestly don't see the big deal. If I want shorter dwell time and less recoil, I will shoot my rifle length gas system. The only mid-length I will ever consider is a KAC SR15; i just like their products

    I have bought a couple HK handguns from them. Quick service and reasonable shipping. No problems so far. Their catalog is a little cheesy, but their prices on a lot of stuff is good.

    The fanboys have BCM on the brain and the math is fuzzy to them. I'm thinking a Colt 6920 has always been cheaper than the comparable BCM model. The Colt being ready to shoot out of the box and the BCM requiring a rear sight.

    I have a Colt 6920 as well as a BCM Midlength BFH with Daniel Defense 9" Lite II free float rail. Overall my experience is that BCM is better machined and has a beefier BCG, but my Colt has a better MILSPEC trigger out of the box.

    When confronted with the same dilemma, I bought both. A Colt LE6920MP-B, and a BCM 14.5" ELW w/13"KMR (BCM BCG), that I mated to a Mega lower with DD LPK. Both are very fine rifles but I like my BCM better, it is insanely light and very accurate for my abilities. YMMV.

    Being an AR newbie, I was faced with a similar choice recently. Since I was planning to leave it stock, I went with the 6940. I'm very happy with it. That being said, I didn't know what I didn't know. I wouldn't mind a longer rail, but that's an impossibility with the 6940. I'd like a QD end plate, but I'm not sure how I feel about breaking the factory staking. The solution? I just ordered a BCM lower from Grant. I'll save up for a BCM upper that fills a different role than the 6940. In my experience, you can't go wrong with either. Your next AR ( and there WILL be a next one), you can go with the other in a different configuration.

    I've had a Colt 6920 for a while now .
    I just got a BCM Mid Length upper direct from BCM and a BCM lower from G & R .

    I must agree about the stock MILSPEC triggers .
    Out of the box the 6920's trigger was better then the BCM .
    I know it's been a while but there was a more notable gritty feel
    to the BCM trigger that I don't remember from the 6920 .

    However the BCM lower seems to be machined a little better overall .
    Especially on the inside .

    If I were to get another BCM lower from G&R I would pay the extra money for
    the ALG ACT trigger to be installed by them .
    I got both the BCM upper and lower within a few days and it cost
    me around a grand .

    Colt vs BCM? The answer is yes....


    BCM advantage is the enormous options they are offering.
