any of them would be awesome![Beer]
1st of all you're a lucky sob. I'd pick the MacBook Pro.....or maybe the Black Rain Ordnance. Idk that's a hard decision. If you have a CPU and not an AR then get the AR. If you have an AR and no CPU do the Mac.
I say the Mac...
.. assuming you have one or a few AR's in your stable already [Beer]
I picked the Colt. Computers are disposable and have little value after you've used them for a while.
Rifles are durable, will pretty much last forever and will hold their value over time...maybe even appreciate.
I voted Colt but the decision was based purely on 'looks', have to admit.
Not a fan of bling and both the rain and the Mac looked a little blingy.[ROFL1]

Gotta go Colt!
Black Rain looks all Orange County Choppers, skulls are so 2001! [ROFL1]
And well, IMHO, computers piss me off!
Either way, great presents! You got a good one. Happy Birfday!!
As I type this on my MacBook Pro...
I love my MacBook Pro, having had it for almost 5 years with Zero issues. So I couldn't argue that choice! My wife, previously a diehard PC user, succumbed last year and has gone Mac. You'll hear crap about 'em, but haters gotta hate...[ROFL1]
Otherwise, the FDE Colt makes me drool...my Colt SPR is probably my absolute all time favorite AR. Funny thing is, I almost got a Black Rain carbine with the flags on it instead of the SPR.[Coffee]
Whichever way you choose, you're a lucky man!
I would be blown away if my wife was looking to spend that much on a birthday present for me, good for you.
I agree that the computer will end up being a short term item and a gun will long outlast it. I vote Colt.
If you get the colt now you can convince the wife later that you guys need the mac and just go buy ot for no good reason. The of you get the colt now you will have both.
The black rain is a little too "assault flashy" for me.
P.S. Im also typing this on a macbook and its sweet.
Why were there no strippers or a lap dances among the choices? [Flower]
anything but the $2000 Facebook machine. [Abused]
Colt.
Black rain pattern looks like it'll get old fast. Kinda like those older gals who wear Forever 21 stuff.
Double tapping on other peeps previous comments, laptops depreciate fast.
Everyone knows PC is better.
Colt is over priced.
Black Rain isn't a kewl enough name.

Happy almost B'day. [Party1]
any would be great, but gotta go with the colt, don't like the skulls on the black rain and computers change to much don't hold any value, but great gift from the wife, looks like your going to owe her dinner out somewhere nice.
as much i hate to say this the best value is prob the colt but your paying for the name, the computer would be sweet but like others have said will be out of date the moment you buy it
I voted for the Colt. Second would be the other AR. Anything but a crApple product.
Here is where I stand, I went to bp, and 5280 today, looked at the colt and the br, the br was way to flashy in person as well as heavy due to the stainless barrel. and the colt is more gold than fde, and not a real even color application kinda cheapish looking, I could not warm up to it. so now I dont know what the hell I want. I have decided on a ar platform rifle preferably a non black one, I have plenty of black ones, now I'm surfing the net to try to decide. This honestly sucks she tells me to get what I want and now I can't make up my mind. But thanks to the advice here I have At least ruled out the mac.[Dunno] but I need to hurry before she changes her mind.
Colorado Gun Broker in Bailey has the plain Colt M4 Carbine for $1089 (?) I think. 3.9% tax. Pretty good deal.
I have a black le6920 I wanted to pick up a couple of fde or green ones just incase Barry gets back in and the panic takes over and I can't afford one for 4 more yearsQuote:

Get the Mac
I Finally decided, I went to get the 6920 and they had a delta elite just sitting there calling my name so I got it instead, I'm now waiting to go through cbi and will post pics after getting her home.
Ohhh, fun. [Muaha]
Colt. Or some AR that floats your boat! What'll you do with a Mac, throw it at the bad guy? [Coffee]
Macs are cool looking & cultic, but it always amazes me how they get away with repackaging older technology & charging a premium for it!
Awesome! I have a stainless Gold Cup Delta Elite and it's one of my favorites! CDNN usually has mags for them...I should probably order a couple more myself.Quote:
