    Colt 6920 vs. S&W M&P15

    OK, I have a comparison question, but before I ask it let me preface it by requesting that no one suggest a different alternative.

    While I realize that I have neither the experience or potential to be a 1911Tuner;) , I do aspire to being a 1911Tweaker. But some of the recent comments regarding Springfield's Milspec have given me pause to ponder. I have one Milspec, which I have made a few minor changes to (trigger, MSH &...
