I would try to make it to your nearest Academy or sporting goods store (not Dicks) as often as you can at their open time and ask them when they will receive shipments. You can then look for a Windham, Colt, or Bushmaster from them, and you should spend under $1k, or maybe right at that.

I would suggest waiting a few weeks until some of the craziness dies down. Your still going to pay a premium. Some keys to look for is make sure the upper and lowers are made from 7075 Aluminum. You want a barrel that is made of 4150 steel and chrome lined. Rock River, Stag and Smith and Wesson all make quality AR platform Rifles. If your patient you should be able to find one in the 1000-1300 range. Now that the threat of an AWB is over prices will start to come down. Parts availability will keep things up for a few months.

Dude, you should just wait a few months. Or if you have the time go to Academy or Cabela's every morning when they open. You can pick up a Colt or Sig for hundred's less than you are talking about. A Bushmaster is even less. They get them, they just don't know what or when.
