I think the soldiers and marines who literally fought for their lives with them would disagree. Most brands will give you what you are looking for. Personally I prefer to build my own. It's way cheaper and I can use the parts I want. Just make sure all parts are milspec. You can build a really good AR for relatively cheap and it's really easy.I thought when "lives depend on it" only controlled-round feed is adequate... But that's another story.
Anyway, as a person that does not have an AR but feels he should, just because, what brand will give me 1 MOA for less than $800 off the shelf and what caliber? .223 or 5.56xsomething or whatever?

This is what I used to learn. You can have every part shipped directly to your door except the stripped lower. Which makes it really convenient to get exactly what you want. The stripped lower has to go through an ffl because it's the part with the serial number and is considered a firearm.I imagine that is is all true, but it does take a bit more ambition and energy to research it all, and as an ambivalent, prospective AR owner, I'm just lacking sufficient motivation. Is there a cook-book recipe for it that is well vetted (I'm sure there are dozens of youtube videos, many of dubious quality)?
