wow. I would say any one you can find! The prices are going up and it may not be long before you cannot find one under $800.

Going to be hard pressed to find any AR. It depends on local prices. Here you could get S&W, Bushmaster, Stag Arms, Saber Defense and Windham Weaponry (bought old bushmaster plant) in the 800-850 range. A few times a year S&W would have a promotional and be 700. They are all pretty decent. I would go with Stag or Saber if there was one of all of them on the shelf. If not I'd just pick up whichever was there and have no worries. I said could because I doubt there is one within a few hundred miles right now. Some folks were buying them 4 or more at a time last week at a big shop near me.

Yea, your a little late on that one. I suggest purchasing a receiver and waiting for this "black rifle" thing to die down. Brownells are supposed to be getting some in next month. They are around $90 if you pre order.
Most AR15 went from $595 t0 $1595 over night.
