Ok, so like everyone else I want to get a few toys before our new leadership re-institutes the Assault Weapons ban.
I'm NOT a rifle guy, but want to get into them. I know an AR style weapon will suit me best. I'd like as many bells & whistles as possible while maintaining practicality. Good set of vivid open sights, an addition of a red dot, and pistol foregrip and taclight should be good enough for me.
Ever since hearing about the Magpul Masada, I have wanted one. Well now it's coming out as the Bushmaster ACR. Problem is that it may not be ready before a new law is passed, so I'm not sure waiting is the best idea.
SO from what's ready to ship I think I have it narrowed down to a Sig or maybe a DPMS. I am tempted by the low prices of the DPMS line but know nothing about their quality and reliability.
ANY feedback pros/cons on the Sig 556 or DPMS/Panther Arms line would be appreciated.
