  • LWRC. Splash the cash, it's the most reliable. DIs won't cut it w/ a 10.5"

    10 15.38%
  • LMT. Pistons aren't necessary. A quality 10.5" DI is dependable as long as you maintain it.

    54 83.08%
  • Get a Sig 556 Pistol (10" Bbbl.) and SBR. Cheaper than the LWRC and it's a piston.

    Funny but 3600 is what I payed for mine. Would I do it again. I don't know. Parts are stupid. 700 for a BCG. Crazy. As to your qwest for an upper I would also suggest the Bravo Company 11.5 upper. It's not out yet but looks to be top notch.

    Is that just the upper?

    Hah, don't ask me how much my M16 lower cost!
    If you aren't armed when you take a dump in your own home then your opinion on what is a practical daily carry weapon isn't interesting to me.

    Once you buy an M16, it warps your perception of what is a "reasonable" price as far as accessories go.

    Actually it warps your perception of all prices in the firearms world. You look at semiauto items that are several thousand dollars and think, "wow, that is inexpensive".

    Yes that is the upper only. I think the worst is my HK sear. 13.5k for a tiny piece of metal. But Hk or M16 are a crap load of fun.

    When 16s were going for between 4 and 5 thousand dollars I thought buyers were WARPED!

    I wouldn't pay that or current market prices no matter how much money I had.

    That's the way you do it!

    Different strokes for different folks. I paid $7,000 for my first Colt M16 in 2002, then $9,000 for my second (a Colt AR15 model 614 factory fullauto) in 2004. I would do it all over again and am very happy I bought when I did....though I wish I'd bought sooner. I love my M16s.....would be the absolute last MG I ever sold.
