Hey, the Gummint was kind enough to give me a Colt fifty years ago; I didn't have to run thru' the jungle with it, but I did shoot the hell out of it every chance I got (range detail...never return unfired ammo ), and it worked all the time, dry and dirty (heavy lube wasn't a thing back then), never a bobble.
A buddy just went thru' this issue, because Colts weren't available. He'd like to drive me nuts worrying about it. He ended up with an FN on the advice of a local shop; it met the usual tests (MPC bolt, staked carrier key bolts, etc.), and seems nicely made.
Avoid cheap rifles, and shoot the one you get.

So much hate in this thread.
- OP hate
- LMT hates Colt
- Mistiwolf hates froglube
- Froglube hates Colt
obviously both Colt and LMT will serve the op well.

I'm assuming this is sarcasm. PSA and "very high quality combat worthy rifle" is an oxymoron.
PSA can eat a d**k after their CEO went on a podcast, admitted they were hiring unqualified people off of the street to assemble their rifles, and let those rifles go out the door with known issues.
