Ruger or Colt?

[kwelz]

I think you made the right choice. Shoot it, learn it, then start upgrading it.

I think either choice would have been the "right" choice.
He did make the "wise" choice though, with ruger being new still.

+1 for Colt. I don't own one, but given the choice between a Colt and a Ruger, I'd take a Colt 10 times out of 10.

Colt- If its good enough for the armed forces, its good enough for me.

Colt- If its good enough for the armed forces, its good enough for me.

I wouldn't quite go along the reasoning "good for the armed forces, good enough for me".

In the case of the Colt, you are buying an excellent rifle. But other gear the military chooses often is not as good.
