[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 891689, member: 6064"] Well posted Glocktogo! More to the point, the rifles I have seen fail the most in competition and in class, in order of failures. Colt, Armalite,Olympic, DPMS, Bushmaster.Almost all of these have been older ones. For a while Colt had TERRIBLE QC as did DPMS and Bushmaster (Ususally front sights not square to the barrel). Within the last 3-4 years ALL brands have been good enogh for a 1500 round class/ high 3-gun use. Frankenguns usually run as good or better than most as long as the builder took his time, knew what he was doing and had good parts. (note not necessarily Mil Spec.) The most accurate in order J.P., Firebird, Clark, Noveske, Saber, DPMS The best for the $$ DPMS, now...not 5 years ago The "best" in My mind J.P. Enterprises/Firebird followed for a close second Noveske, Saber, and then La Rue. ( personal experience with all of them and for more than a couple of rounds ) The last three catagories are my subjective opinion, but back up with "tens of thousands of rounds" of experience The Coolest whizz bang part for an AR...Titanium bolt carrier! As light as the Aluminum J.P. doesn't wear and cycles soooooo fassssst! with no felt recoil [/QUOTE]
