    The reason I suggested it to you is that if you haven't done it before, it gives you great insight on how an ar/m4 does what it does. But, they have great guns already assembled at various companies, so if you dont have time go that way, if you have time you won't regret it. Good luck either way.

    I feel you pain on the sbrs for i am also a res the the great state of MI. Its always good to have a back-up just in case. scars are nice rifles very light and smooth shooting same ammo +. Im not sure what you safe contains but a tac shotgun might be a nice addition to the fam or maybe look into a custom pistol. I would say look at long range rifles but where i am there isnt a real place to shoot them unless you own land to really reach out there.

    How about another DDM4V5 setup with different optics, if your HD goes down you already have a similar one to take over.

    Good points here. You mentioned SD/HD, are you commited to the AR for said use? If so I would recommend a "back up" AR to start. I'm of course assuming your AR is set up for defensive purposes. I use a 6920 for defensive use, set up with RDS, light etc. I just finished with a BCM M4, it will be back up to the Colt until I have such time and money to get it set up as well.

    I have a full set of quality replacement parts, however if an irrepairable incicent strikes the Colt then I can simply switch the kit over to the BCM and be ready to roll again.

    I've been down the road of exploring different designs several times, there is nothing wrong with it and I enjoyed the education I got from it. I would just suggest getting a solid base in you chosen defensive system first. IMO.

    Good luck

    I would probably just get another DD carbine, but you could also get a nice lower and an AAC 300 BLK, or AA 6.5 Grendel upper if you want to be different.

    thanks for the replies, i am really thinking another ar would be the best choice, but probably a BCM just to be different from what i have. i also like the look of the stainless uppers. any experience with those?
