ok, im looking at getting an AR in the next couple of months. First off im an LEO and this will be used for "personal" use. Ive been looking around and didnt really want to spend $1200 for a Colt. Although i like them a lot.
Well today my squad have an In-Service training doing building searches with Simunition. Well during a lil down time a guy was at the range and and had a couple of AR's .223 and .308. BUT then thing is this, the ones he had were the ****! if you know about AR's you know about carbon build up and the gas tube at times have melted. also if you shoot a mag through it and tear it down, the bolt is smoking hot, too hot to handle. The guy did a demo, he shot a complete mag as fast as he could then tore it down and handed me the bolt, ICE COLD.... plus self lubricating due to the reciever interior being silicon nickle plated. check out this site. http://www.pof-usa.com/
my question is this, do i go out and spend about 900-1200 on a bushmaster or colt. or say screw it and by this one, gun and eoteck, for about $2500?
