Who are the top 10 AR-15 manufacturers?

[aestus]

This is my list and my list only. This is not based on anything scientific, but just based on my observations. I know I left out some manufacturers, but these are just off the top of my head


Boutique manufacturers: knights armaments, noveske, JP, Larue, LWRC (piston)

Top tier standard: Colt, BCM, Daniel Defense, spikes tactical

Top bargain: palmetto state, windham weaponry, smith & Wesson m&p, spikes tactical, dpms, bushmaster, rock river

Lower priced: rguns, model 1, delton, dpms

This has the potential of being the most epic thread ever.

Wilson Combat would be number two

See, now were getting somewhere! It was just a matter of time.
To answer the question of whether i have owned a wilson or les baer, the answer is no. I would not spend money on either.

I own four Colt's, great guns but fit and finish have gone down hill.

Allow me to clarify my point before im branded a hater.

In my opinion the ar world in particular is dominated by war horses, show ponies and every one else.
Threads about what ar is best invariably becomes a contest where all three are put into the same category. This is a mistake because these three types do not correlate, for the most part.

The fit and finish crowd bashes the war rifle crowd while every one else ends up claiming to be "just as good as...".
