But what about the color.... I need my ar to match my accessories.
Fashion 101: Black goes with everything.
Do I need to match my socks to my sling or my rifle?except as a belt with brown shoes.... So if I have brown boots should my sling be brown even if the gun is black?

This!He started with a quality factory built gun. I don't see anything wrong with his path. Quality being key
If "need" ever figured into it, we would all be in trouble.What does'need' have to do with buying a $5000 rifle.
I have a squirrel rifle that almost cost that much. Silly man.
he's a cool dude for sure. Straight up.I met Kris when he was speaking in Ft Wayne. Very straight forward, treated me like an old friend. His talk was to be 35 minutes, ended at 50+. The entire story of that Battle in Benghazi was Riveting. If you are ever afforded a chance to see him in person don't miss it!
but you do need this 500 dollar stock.... to be a true operator
smith & Wesson mAkes quality AR's in my opinion. So even the sports though not true milspec in areas, will be a decent rifle if properly maintained. I've owned (own) lower end but quality AR's but I also have a couple decent AR's that cost more off the shelf. The difference is noticible and that's just me being completely honest. The bushmaster that he started with back in those days was the same quality as a colt. It wasn't a low end AR but it wasn't a Daniel Defense with a RIS II rail system so it just doesn't cost as much. During the ban every Basic AR was reficulously expenssive, so now we are living in good times. The people who complain about a $1500 tricked out Daniel Defense would have paid that or more for just a basic M4 style AR before 2002To be fair, he was referring to the average joe in America who aren't of the Operator type. Most of us are the joes who just do day to day jobs and unless we live in a really screwed up part of the country that requires us to operate or have jobs like are LEO, then we only need the basics and build from them. Anything after that is personal preference.
I still run my original Smith and Wesson M&P Sport, not the II, but the first one and after a thousand rounds in practices and drills, it's still going strong. Of course like any of us, I've added a bunch of crap to it but the starting point doesn't have to be get this 1500 Daniel Defense because brand name recognition
