Yes, I have heard that they are in trouble and that's why prices are down right now. Aren't all parts interchangable anyway (just in case they go under) ?
I guess maybe what I should have said is "I'm pretty well set on the Colt 6920 Magpul edition in black or FDE. Anybody know any reason not to buy it ?"
I have heard good things about the Daniel Defense though.
The prices on the 6920s are real low (below dealer by a lot). If given the choice, I like the midlength and I like the 1/8 twist(both on the smith). I've done transfers for several 6920s and I've just not been impressed with them. They aren't bad but there's the "Cult of Colt" for some reason and I don't feel like they've done much of anything great lately. I do like that their selling their OEM rifles without furniture but that's more marketing than anything to do with the hardware.
Yes, it's all interchangeable. DD is nice but it's not going to be below $1k unless you fine a USED one.
