    I Have a SW and it has shot very well. I shoot only 55 grain through it and have not had any issues. I did replace the BCG with a LMT full auto from Grant though. It is much better than a RRA rifle I loan friends at the range.


    My brother in law has a SW and it has performed amazingly well. He treats it like crap and it just keeps shooting. I offered to clean it once because I felt bad for the rifle.

    That said If I had to do it again I would go with the 1/7 CHF barrel offerings. It is not a cheap sport any longer, don't cut corners. Prices are coming down though, you could shoot the hell out of the 1/9 and pick up a nice 1/7 down the road.

    I don't remember if SW uses 4140 or 4150, but I'm pretty sure they are chrome lined.

    You might also want to try the CD M4LE. I saw one recently on gunbroker with a buy now price of $950 and a starting bid in the upper $800 range.

    Some states still have an AWB, and expressly state that Colt is banned.

    Private citizens in Hawaii cannot own a Colt M4 or M4A1. Now if you are talking a Colt 6920, then you are GTG.

    The S&W is not a mil-spec AR, at least not fully.
    -Not the right barrel twist or material
    -SA BCG vs. FA
    -Carbine buffer vs. H buffer
    -gas port is to large

    I am sure there are other things I am missing.

    This however does not make it a bad rifle, I have 2 of them along with my DDM4, and they shoot really well and I have had zero issues with them. They are not though mil-spec.
