I love my Daniel Defense M4.

Has that Norinco MAK-90 been reliable?

I didn't think about that until another thread mentioned it. Right now I am thinking the GG&G flip up spring actuated sight up front and the Magpul MBUS in the back. I can say that I think i will be waiting until the summer as the MBUS2 which is slimmed down is coming out then. Same with the AFG, i noticed a sketch of the AFG2 that is supposed to swing down like a regular grip as well as lock in the traditional AFG position. For now, I'm just going to the MVG because it integrates so cleanly with the MOE stock and it made with the thumb break method in mind.

I'm contemplating switching to the ikickhippies end plate which is cheaper and would get rid of the noise. Instead of iron sights, you might try out the MBUS. I have the rear one and it's pretty tough. You'll probably never use the backup sights once you get the Aimpoint.

Thanks for the heads up on the ASAP plate! I think the ikickhippies is a much better design overall anyway. An no need to sell me the on the MBUS, just want to wait for the second version since it is so close anyway. I will have the Aimpoint mounted and ready to rock in a couple weeks max so the backups can wait.

Here is a policeman's guide to AR-15's. it is very information. This cop has tested ALL AR-15's out there and reviewed ALL modern production AR15's. Check it out: http://forums.officer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=81462

I've maybe put 2000 rounds through it since I got it back in the early 90's and I have never had one problem with it. It has been 100%. One of the best shooting rifles I've owned for what it is. It's been a great rifle.

You won't find a better deal as this one comes with M4 ramps, Chrome Lined, Double heatshield handguards, heavy buffer, A2 carry handle, and a Pmag all for $799.

+1 for Spike's Tactical. I just ordered a lower from them, and that rifle on their front page is very tempting...
