I would have to go with LMT or Bushmaster. In my opinion, for what they offer, these two companies are the best.

My LMT MRP:

Right now it's DPMS and POF.  I've had a few Bushmasters and they were great guns.  I've never owned an Armalite.  I love old Colts SP1, SP1 carbine...

Colt

MPI tested bolts and Brls. Forged F marked front sight bases. M4 feed ramps. 1:7 twist. the stuff that makes an AR a weapon and not a toy.

Who makes the most durable and best AR complete rifles?
I'm not sure... I have only owned Bushmaster and Daewoo. Both are excellent.

What is your favorite AR company?
My favorite is Bushmaster.

WHY?
I've been dealing with Bushmaster since the late 70's.
The products and customer service have been excellent.

Well, I will probably be accused of being a Kool-Aid drinker, but I've had more range time with Colt than anything else. I have three Colt ARs and one Stag. I have an old SP1, a Sporter HBAR and a AR15A2 Gov't. Carbine. My favorite out of all of them is the plain-Jane HBAR. There's no fancy bells and whistles and the only thing on it that isn't factory is a Turner match sling. However my Stag with an EOTech 512 mounted on it has gotten a good bit of trigger time lately.

BUSHMASTER has Been so GOOD to Me !

There service is OUTSTANDING!

The Shorty has NEVER EVER Hic up a single round    A1 shorty w/ VLTOR,arms 39 ML2
and has shot all types of ammo

I just got a LMT 14.5 M4 I put together
SOPMOD stock and a 551 eotech,arms 40

I wont Talk about the COLT 20A2 I bought in the early 80`s Lemmon

Its a HARD vote

Does LMT do this as well?

I like my own "put togethers".  

All the makes you mentioned are of good quality.  I've never been partial to RRAs, but I've never owned one.  I've just handled them, and seen alot of discussions here on the forum.  DPMS isn't bad in my opinion, but alot of people say their QC isn't that good.

I don't see LMT listed.  That's how I'd vote.  

My Colt and RRA stuff is just dandy too.

I have been very impressed with RRA but there us still something about my Olympic P SUM that I love.

My AR15 experience is limited to Colt (.223, 5.56 & 9mm), Bushmaster and Rock River Arms weapons.  

Limited to my AR15 experience, I don't have a favorite from those manufactures.  I haven’t had any real problems with any of my AR’s.  Any problems could be attributed to lubrication or operator error.  I don’t think any have been the fault of the weapons.  

I currently own an all Colt SBR, Colt 9mm and a Bushmaster lower with a RRA upper.  They work great.

Rock River because I have more trigger time on it. I like Bushmaster too.
