Looking to buy my first AR-Shop recommendations

[zulu01]

I am interested in buying a complete BCM rifle. Any know a shop in the Denver metro area or north to Fort Collins who stock a good selection of Bravo Co? One that doesn't mind answering a bunch of questions from a newb.

I'd say go talk to Rob @ Bowers. Can't really go wrong w/ BCM. But you might be able to build (have rob build) exactly what you want for cheaper.

I don't know anyone who stocks BCM.

Second for Bowers.

They can order pretty much anything as well.

If you weren't opposed to a Colt instead, several of the local shops have the ones without the furniture in stock for a reasonable price. Bowers Tactical and Damage Factory come to mind.

IMO there's no 1 perfect gun store. I've had great interaction at shop A. Then weeks later feel like that "help" never existed. There's one shop people suggest. The 3 phone calls to them were to get my order corrected. That's After the owner said they would handle it, 2 weeks prior to it supposedly being in transit .

I'm definitely considering an online purchase, but it would be nice to handle one before buying. Especially since I'm new to ARs and don't really know what I like. My decision is based off of reviews and what I think looks good.

My advice is build your lower how you want it. Then you will be able to reconfigure when you change your mind on how you want it.

Buy a complete upper from BCM and pin it on top of your lower. Get lots of ammo and figure out what works for you and the type of shooting you will be doing.

Save money for your next upper. You will get one. It is your destiny.
