Tell me what you know about AR-15's. Which ones would you guys recommend?
I wouldn't wait too long. Prices will be going up, and supply is already going down. And supply of ammo is getting thin. Prices on the ammo are most likely to go up as well.

IIRC, Rock river Arms. Very nice. I have a LEO friend that has a couple of RRA complete rifles. He loves his.
Very smart to have already acquired them, and salted them away. I would assume you already have complete uppers and BCG's to go with them. If not, I would acquire them now.
Good. The next upper I get will be a 24" flat top. I have a friend that has one. Very accurate. I have a 24" upper with the old fixed handle. Have started to get rid of it, but it is so accurate, I just can not. I can put a scope on it, but it is just awkward. But with irons, it is amazing. I enjoy using irons occasionally, so I keep it. I really want one in a flat top to put glass on.
" the fixed handle becomes more worthless and in the way. "
True. I acquired it just before they came out with flat tops. ( gives you an idea of its vintage ) But damn, it is accurate, I have used it on targets out to 500 meters, can ping them all day.
I even thought about replacing the upper rec with a flat top, but not worth it. Might as well get a whole new upper assembly. Besides, this one has the iron front sight gas block. Kinda funky now. But still damn accurate
