Have another thread going about ARs and their reliability. In case some have already posted in that and wouldn't see my last comment late into the thread..I wanted some advice on these specs.

Hey that sounds like mine. Excellent rifle, I paid a little more.

RRA makes a good product. My department uses the entry tactical model and we've not had any issues with any of them. I've had an entry tactical for years with thousands of rounds through it without a problem.

You can get a Colt 6920 MagPul edition Desert Tan @ Grab A Gun for $899.00.

I've also had one of these for years and no problems. Bought mine back in the days when I think rock river were at their best.

Is this a better rifle than a rock river?

I have that same one for years now. It has always shot really nice groups. I ran it through fighting rifle at tactical response two weeks ago and it ran the whole class without any problem. Its a great gun, i will get another one eventually.

I have had mine for about 9 years and cleaned 4 maybe 5 times with about 3k through it.

Accuracy is still under(yes under) 1 MOA with quality ammo.

The cleanings were out of guilt other than having it out in the rain once.

Short summary, love mine and would buy it all over again.

It's like comparing a Ford to Chevrolet. The biggest difference though will be if you decide to sell or trade it down the road, in which case the Colt would be heavily favored.
