While I want a Noveske myself... I'm not sure I think they're so head and shoulders above Colt for the price difference I found when I went looking. I think Noveske makes a nice nice rifle, don't get me wrong. And if I was buying something other than a 16 inch 5.56 starter gun, I'd be all over their website. But for a first AR, if your budget is 1K, it's a colt 6920. If it's 500-700ish I'd probably aim at S&W or DPMS.
