Help me decide on a new AR

I know that you said that you wanted a factory rifle, but you might have better luck with the BCM if you were willing to buy the complete upper and complete lower separately.

If that includes being paid a hour's wages to push two pins together to assemble it...

I have indeed thought about that, thanks.

I love my POF minuteman but I'd go with BCM if I had to vote.

So I've got my next purchase down to about four rifles, in no particular order:

-FN TAC3 Duty
-Zev Core Elite
-LWRC IC-DI
-ADM UIC15 Mod 2
-(if I can find it) BCM RECCE 16" MLOK

My first choice would be the BCM. But this rifle in that spec is as rare as the dodo bird. Can't find it anywhere.

This rifle would be for self-defense and carbine courses, with possible duty use if I go back into Armed Security work as a private contractor.

It MUST have a 16" barrel, I don't want a pinned-and-welded flash hider/muzzle break. I would also prefer QD attachments on the handguard and ambi controls, as well as a good trigger that doesn't need updating (but it's not a deal-breaker, providing the rifle is good).

I don't want to build, and I don't want a Daniel Defense, for reasons I'm not getting into because I don't want to derail the thread.

So besides building a rifle and Daniel Defense, what other rifles should I consider, if not the ones above? I've heard some good and bad things about Geissele Duty rifles, so I'm on the fence with them.

So of those five, which would you choose and why? Thanks!

LWRC if you cant find a BCM. BCM and LWRC build nothing less than excellent rifles. Every part is quality. My BCM Recce has been flawless with over 5k rounds down the pipe. Not cheap but worth every penny in my opinion.

Thanks. Depending on my budget, I'll just get a stripped ADM lower and build it in time. There's a few guns I want before M114 goes into effect, but only so much money to spend.
