The Daniel Defense DD for $3000 is amazingly cool looking but I still can't justify it's hefty price tag when I can get Windham .308 with a midwest floated handguard for $1250 including tax. No is not as stout as the DD but I can get two Windham's for the price of one DD .308

I haven't spent one cent on AR's with the idea of what's best for close quarters. I've spent a lot of money on them, because I have a lot of fun with them in the desert. I also like the idea of cool looking ARs. To me, they are one of several hobbies, along with reloads of .223 & 300 Blackout.
Unless there is a Zombie attack, with ample warning, I won't have time to dig the ARs out of their cases. I do my my shotgun, 45's, 9mms, etc. , if required.
