Personal preference and if I had the scratch...the HK...she's a thing of beauty and there aren't too many of them (comparatively speaking). But is is worth the extra cash? That's up to the buyer (hence I said...if I had the money for that). The Colt, while nice, doesn't get me excited to go shooting at the range. They both go boom and will work nice...

i dont want the match style AR, even KAC admit their trigger is shot after 3000 rounds..
i want buy now and keep for life reliability..

If looking for DI I would go KAC it is the pinnacle of the DI system, but if to save money well Daniel Defense comes in at an amazing price.
If looking for piston, well Hk will not let you down.
HK MR223 A1 will do that...

That's news to me...
AFAIK, it was a problem on the triggers from the 90's (FA and SA).
At very least, the E3 IWS guns have new triggers. One of my SR-15's are well past 6k with the original trigger.

That makes more sense. Thanks for clearing that up as I hadn't heard anything like that with the new E3 rifles.
never, because the mr556 is the USA only version. our HK's come from Germany.
first off, one is DI and one is piston..what do you want?
as for DI... Colt is nice, but for about the same or less I would go with KAC, Noveske or LMT in a second.
I own/owned a Colt LE6920, Noveske Infidel, H&K MR223, LMT and as far as quality/fit/finish I would give H&K the win...the Noveske comes in a very very very close second then the Colt and LMT are pretty much a tie. the H&K is a little muzzle heavy for some and I really don't know if the extra 1K spent for a piston will give you a signifiantly longer life on your rifle parts (i doubt it). I own an H&K only because i can afford a few more luxuries than I used to but if i had only 4k or 5k to invest in a AR, it would be KAC or Noveske and a top tier optic.
just my opinion, and im sure there are better informed guys here that you should listen to.
agreed but if you do decide to go with the MR223, make sure you specifically ask the vendor for the MR223 A1 and not the older version.
i know, thats why i said A1 in my topic title.... but thanks, i will be sure to ask.

no, they all take AR mags, the A1 version upper is interchangable with any other AR lower.

Only standard metal AR magazines and EMAGs (no PMAGs). The main benefit is the "A1" variant doesn't have the pin offset so you can use it with any standard AR upper or lower receiver.
