Much better to keep it cocked with safety flipped, and SA
also one more question...do steel slide weapons needs to be lubed more than poly?

You also need to distinguish grips vs chassis. Polymer is fine for the grip, but not the chassis. Glock for instance will use Steel inserts on the chassis, Kahr the same at the stress point. Take the Nano and Pico, solid Stainless Steel throughout the gun and build like tanks. Forget a aluminum chassis on a gun that you plan to put a lot of ammo down range. The Military does not buy cheap aluminum guns.

Edit: They will last longer if you don't lube them though.

Prices have never been this good for AR15 style rifles and accessories. So, if there was a time to "buy one cry once" and simultaneously buy it cheap and stack it deep, this is it.
$1,500 is a pretty big budget if that's forjustthe rifle. If it's for the rifle, mags, ammo, optic, sling, light...not so much.
A Colt 6920 has long been the benchmark. The gold standard. It's not the best, but it's the standard by which others are measured and functionally it is rock solid. The one you linked is out of stock though, recent availability has been unpredictable because of Colt's financial woes, apparently.
Consider a <$1k new Colt 6920 or assemble your own rifle (with a complete upper and complete lower it's not even assembling it's less work than opening the box to put an upper on a lower) from parts as places commonly sell complete uppers and then you buy a complete lower separate or buy a stripped lower and build the lower out (pretty easy to do).
Still reading? If you're talking about spending $1,500+, you should still be reading. Forjust the rifleconsider a complete bravo company upper or a complete Geissele super duty rifle or a complete Daniel Defense rifle. Hell just buy an LMT because why not?
So is $1,500 for just the rifle, or is that for rifle and needed accessories and support like a sling, light, optic, mags, ammo?
