    Seriously we have been down this road so many times. Allow me to point out a few little things again.

    1. Daniel Defense XV will get you in the neighborhood without sacrificing.

    2. Why does it have to be under 1000.00? If you can't afford 1-200.00 more then you will also have trouble feeding it with mags and ammo. Prices are coming down, not going up. Rushing to buy it makes no sense unless you need it. If you truly need it cutting corners is the last thing you want to do.

    3. None of the rifles/carbines you have listed are really worth that price IMHO. You could probably slap a BCM together for about the same price and it surely is better than what you have listed.

    Spend a little more and go for the XV, BCM, or a Colt 6920. All of these rifles are outstanding examples and are of far better quality than most of the rifles that are only a few hundred less. It's a no-brainer IMO. You can always add the cool guy stuff later when your budget allows. Ammo, mags, and an optic should come before that stuff anyways if you don't already have it.

    I'm in the process of putting together a BCM myself. Their parts quality and attention to detail are superb, and they are also easy to come by these days. They used to be damn near unobtainable. You couldn't possibly go wrong with either of the three I mentioned, however.

    Just remember that a few hundred bucks can you apart from a plinking-recommended-only rifle and a duty weapon worth trusting your life with.

    They pale in comparison to the BCM & DD AR's.

    We do price match, but also do not work for free (so there is limit to how low we will go).
