[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1753644, member: 1132"] We've seen these types of "questions" many times where it turned out the OP was simply trying to start a fight or "hoped" that everyone would agree that what they wanted was great. You've reinforced that by defending Windham to those of us who disagreed with your choice (at that price point for my part). You also thanked they guy who posted what it appears you wanted to hear, but didn't bother to even tell me whether my long and technically detailed post actually answered your question. I understand that you may have gotten your hopes up regarding the Windham. I understand that even though you don't know much about AR's, you at least hope that you can tell a good one from a junker. Sadly, a great finish on an AR means nothing. It's what's inside and unseen that really makes one great or not so great. I can tell you that I've spent YEARS learning about AR's. I've read voraciously, then applied what I've learned in the field. I continue to look for new innovations and updates on stuff that's been out for a while. I even research things I'll never buy myself, simply because I want to give my friends and family members good advice if/when they ask. That and I absolutely love the platform. I have absolutely no reason to lie to you and understand that you're not looking for a battle hardened AR. You want a hobby gun that you hope you can count on if the chips fall one day. I'm specifically NOT telling you to just go buy a Colt of BCM. I'm trying to give you some good advice on things that are in your stated price range. The very last sentence of my post is merely stating that you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. You outwardly appear to be stubborn and dead set on your 1st choice. If you go that route, I truly hope it never gives you a lick of trouble. I just can't vote with confidence that it never will. :( [/QUOTE]
