Now all you guys are getting me re-thinking everything again.

I'm in no real hurry to get a rifle, but the sale will be ending the end of next week and I have the itch.

I know there will always be another sale around the corner and with more an more competition, prices aren't likely to increase.

I heard chrome lined barrels are easier to clean but maybe at the expense of some accuracy? I also heard that you probably won't wear your barrel out with recreational shooting no matter what you have.

I know Colt is the standard most AR's are measured against but I heard their customer service isn't so good. I have no experience with them, but know they build a tank like rifle.

If I'm using it mainly for home defense and range use, I don't think I really need a $1000+ priced AR.

I'm still struggling with liking the Saint for a little more money and might wait to see if the price comes down on it later on.

Right now, I'm short on funding and might decide to save up for a while.

I also know you can always wait and with that philosophy, never have anything.

If I had to make a decision right now, which I don't, I would still buy the Sport II.
