Same! That really spoke volumes for an aimpoint.
You know the difference is just the name on the side right?G and R Tactical has 0 in stock of the 6920. It is the sporter anyway. Would rather have the LE myself. Will keep looking.

the only thing a pistol is good for it the help you get back to your rifle.....
Good points. I think each individual person has a weapon or group of weapons for certain purposes. For daily CCW, obviously a pistol is important. For home defense, I could see both having a purpose depending on one's environment, house setup, family members etc.Really? This is one of those cliches like "the most stopping power" and "turning cover into concealment."
When you're at the store with your family and some nut-bag starts shooting at people, is your rifle going to be anywhere nearby for you to fight your way to? Come on.
Practice with your CCW's. A public shooting spree is much more likely to happen to you than widespread social chaos.
BTW, I think either rifle would be fine, but I personally would get the Colt because of the relatively small price difference when you look at the long run. Some here have said that a Colt is only noticeably different when both rifles are pushed to their limits. Isn't that why you want the rifle in the first place, for times when things may be extreme and unpredictable?
Allows one to close the bolt manually when the bolt/carrier is not fully forward/closedI don't want to get off topic with specifics, but what exactly does the forward assist really do?

If it's only going to be used for self-defense and range plinking, there's no need for your first AR-15
I have a S&W M&P 15 and I will tell you that as far as reliability goes, it has been 100%.
If it was just for range plinking I would agree. For self defense I don't know why one wouldn't want to get the best he or she could afford. A defensive gun of mine is going to get run through some training courses and otherwise used relatively regularly and put through its paces. That argues for a well built rifle.
