Hello all I am interested in purchasing my first evil black rifle. I am looking at getting an AR-15 style rifle. I have no experience with them and am really desiring one as I suspect they will be banned in the near future.
I am looking at a Colt 6920. I would like the rifle to be .223/5.56 as it seems to be the commonly issued rifle caliber for the military and local LE agencies. It will also act as my SHTF rifle and a big boys toy.
I wanted opinions on this rifle and any suggestions. Is there a better rifle than this particular one for a "newbie"? What about reliability and quality? I was told that the Colt AR rifles are excellent and of the highest quality.
What about Bushmaster, Rock River Arms, and others? How is the quality versus this rifle? What brand of AR-15 magazines do you all recommend? What about scopes/sights, slings, etc. I want to deck this rifle out as well and will hopefully have it sometime all ready by summer. I am on a budget and will have to buy this piece by piece.
Anyways I wanted to thank you for opinions and suggestions.
