M4 Type Carbine recomendations?

[Combat Auto 174]

Still going up the skill curve of my M1A (Battle Rifle Extrodinair! ;-)) I purchased over the summer, i was going to wait another year to get a carbine...

 

However, with the possible "ban" of "assult" rifles, altough likely small change to NJ law (see the post I started: "Timming of assault weaopon ban...."), I want to purchase an M4 type carbine (if I can get one)...

 

What do folks recommend along these lines? (Please, no Bushmasters - that name will carry a stigma for some time [not saying it is fair of course]).

 

Thanks,

-Joe

Bushmaster turned to crap once Remington bought them anyway (so did Marlin).

Buy quality, especially if it might be the only one you are ever allowed to own. Colt, Noveske, Daniel Defense, LMT, Bravo Company.
