ScrapHeap, calling ARFCOMM, can you hear me over?! My location is Brevard county!

I'm a new guy to the AR-15 collecting scene, but I am no noob. I was going for a full size rifle, in A4 variant, from Armalite, but have been told by a friend that an Ammo Attic nearby had a DPMS for only $600+Tax. I have seen a list of the top 15 AR companies you guy's made up with quite a good consensus, with DPMS at 14 I think, and Armalite at 7. I heard about the BCG breaking and other problems with DPMS, but it still has a good rep. Should I just go out the door with it, or pay a little more for the Armalite and wait. Last time I checked with them, they seemed to be catching up with the demand.

Edit: Let me start out by saying, I posted this before i found out about what has been going on in the news with the possible AWB looming overhead. I thought I still had time to make a wise decision! I'm just surprised that nobody decided to bash me for two seemingly conflicting statements.

Welcome aboard. No advice about the rifle, tho.

Welcome ScrapHeap..

I am a fellow Brevardian, nothing wrong with DPMS Rifles.  They are a good company so if you do actually experience a problem they will take care of you.
