I second ar15performance.com. I bought a 6.8spc upper from him, and he will be offering 5.56 as well. Top notch at price competitive to anything decent. I would choose his over CMMG anyday (I rolled the dice and lost with them), and over BM as well. As far as 6.8spc, I've NEVER had a...

Love mine. Most accurate AR I've ever shot, and it's chrome-lined ;) Zero failures. Slightly heavier than a true "lightweight."

From BCM site: Mil-Spec Barrel Steel (Mil-B-11595E) BCM barrel steel is Mil-Spec per MIL-B-11595E. The 4150 grade (CMV) of steel is a Mil-Spec steel used in the USGI M16 family of rifles; it is stronger and will last longer than the typical barrels offered in the commercial market. The...

You have one, so shoot it and tells us how good it is! Their specs are satisfactory to me, and their choices are unparalleled. I've had problems with CMMG, and will not buy or recommend them, but you see many good reports...but bad ones, too...far more than Colt and LMT. To me, this means...

The best info can be found in the general and technical AR sections at www.m4carbine.net They don't allow urban legends like you often see in gun rags, like "your AR MUST have an extractor donut," and "loc-tite is as good as staking." Much better signal to noise ratio than ar15.com

The first thing you should do is go to 68forums.com. Registering is painless and totally worth it, if you are contemplating buying a gun in this caliber. Obviously it won't keep up with a .270win or .308, but that's not the point. If you want less recoil and are even thinking about a 7.62x39...
