Educate yourself on what is out there instead of being attracted by what you think is a low price on an "entry-level" rifle. Just because it is the lowest price on the rack doesn't make it a worthwhile purchase.

Buy once, cry once.

I remember while doing a stint at jensens the RRA had just hit the market and not moving to well. Clearly at the time a well made AR and was able to pass this on to customers. Now Rock River is "god's creation" to some.
CMMG?? They started out selling parts kits and having really smoking deals on ACOGS!! Then they did the blem rack sales, now CMMG is up there and to some can do no wrong, JK. ALL mfgs started at the bottom, some have stayed there, rightfully so. Others do what they can to improve qc, listen to customer feed back and become successful.
Go to RMSS (rocky mtn shooter supply) and rent a few ar's to see for yourself what the pro's and con's are. Keep in mind the ar's @ RMSS have been run hard. However this will get you a starting point for the rifle.

Im gonna go out on a limb and get flamed for this, but I feel Colt is second rate compared to many others.
Your buying the name and not necessarily anything better then what other manufacturers offer.
Their upper to lower fit is horrible and magwell IMHO is horrible also.
Id go with a Del-Ton or any other manufacturer before Colt.

My most accurate I have owned was a DoubleStar and was hitting a 1/2-3/4 group at 120 yards.

I appreciate the input! More than likely going to order a Del-Ton soon as the funds are there!

I have/had several ar's my m&p-x is probably my favorite to take out.
I did find another good read on the platform. and the chart of ar manufactures.blue highlighted boxes being "what would be ideal" ETA: any ar questions you may have should be answered in this link.
