There are SO MANY freakin' AR-15s that I simply can't make up my mind...
I thought I wanted an Hk MR556, but I really don't like the price and the weight of it...
I was curious if the 6920 is a good rifle to accessorize? I see it doesn't really have picatinny rails like the 6940 does?
I'd like to keep it under $1500 I think (I can go over a lil)... I'm looking for something really light (lighter the better), great quality/reliability (I dunno which to choose DI or piston), and a well known brand. (I guess chrome lined isn't that important if the barrel is made really well right? Like a hammer forged)
My cousin was telling me about Del-Ton ARs (I do like the fact they are made in NC), but I read that they weren't mil spec... Plus if I spend around $750 on a rifle, I mind as well get one that has the name brand cool factor for a few hundred more (not to mention resale value)...
Sooo what's the general opinion about the Colt 6920?
I'm not gonna lie, I do like buying name brand things, simply because they typically are well built, come with great warranties, have great resale value, and of course the cool factor! (I'm being honest! Don't nail me to the wall!)
I dunno if it matters or not, but I did end up buying an AK-47 (Saiga, modified by Red Jacket, yea I know I spent too much), it will arrive in about 14-24 weeks...
thanks a lot amigos
