Anyone heard of CMMG.

Came across these a local shop(The Gun Room). He claims there the best M-4 out there. http://www.cmmginc.com/

Its hardly the best, it is more likely the company they could afford to be a stocking dealer for. I have no experience with their lowers but the uppers I have seen have been ok.

Here is their forum on AR15.com

I take it the Gun Room has devoted a section to black rifles? Or is this in their used consignment section?

You will need to have some idea what you are looking for.
1. Barrel twist 1/7, 1/9, etc....
2. Chrome lined bore?
3. Commercial or Milspec buffer tube?
4. Type of barrel steel 4150, 4140?
5. Any number of other questions you might ask which in truth might be unnecessary but nice to know.

They have both sections of black,AKs and all the other goodies. CMMG's are new for $995.00

I can not say anything bad about them, and would not turn you away, but I am not sure I would spend that kind of money for one. In fact I know I wouldn't but that is irrelevant to your question. Is this a first AR for you?

of course it's "the best", he's a retailer and he's selling it.

get an unbiased oppinion, or at least get to know the guy before you take his word blindly.

usual disclaimers, YMMV

Just mid level guns good not the best not the worst lowers are good. Don't think they forge their own stuff. The web site shows a keyhole upper which every one uses. Barrels have no idea who makes them. Guess Wilson or ER Shaw.
$995 is too high for an AR. You need to get with some of these guys in Denver and they can guide you in building a good AR for about $600.00 and then donate the extra $400 to your Ammo supply.
For a little more $$ a 1/8 twist is a good all around start for a barrel, WOA 18" SPR barrel is a great barrel.
