As long as it isn't one of the dreaded Oly/Hessee nigthmares, whatever floats your boat is almost guaranteed to be fine, and if not any decent company will make it right.
When it comes to LPKs, there are demonstrable differences between the Colt and the likes of DPMS, and more hard-nosed or discerning users will gravitate toward the high-end when possible. Still, breakage of lower parts are much less common that issues with upper receiver components. The nice thing is that they are really easy to diagnose.
Me personally, I mostly go with LMT beecause I trust their QC, machining, and LPK quality. And their roll-mark is simple and modest. They were also available at local shops when I bought them, which certainly was a factor.
