Colt LE 6920 for +/- $800, and spend the rest on ammo.
Prolly the best deal out there.

Best deal is assembling one. 16" mid gas is pretty much the best of all worlds for a carbine.
Complete lower from PSA.
Complete upper from BCM (comes with the BCG now).
pin them together.
Source sights, handguards (unless you go rail system) and other tidbits USED from the AR15.com/PAFOA/M4C EE systems.I always sleep with my guns when you are gone

MILSPEC doesn't really mean a thing, I wouldn't pass on a good AR just because it wasn't MILSPEC. at your price point you have lots of good choices these days since the AR market is saturated. Tanners Sports Center in Jamison, PA had Colt 6940P for 1199 and 6920's for 899. You can find LWRC's on gunbroker for as little as 1500 and Daniel Defense makes a great AR, several in your price range. SW, Sig, Ruger, Colt, DD, LMT, Rock River, STAG, LWRC all make excellent AR15's and any of them would be a good choice. prior to the 1994 AWB expiring your choices were limited but these days there's no shortage of AR manufacturers producing quality rifles. i have owned several of the before mentioned AR and would feel comfortable buying/recommending any of them. good luck with whatever you decide.

Re: Looking at buying an AR
Mil-spec is minimum requirements and does not tell the whole story. You can still have stacking tolerances with mil-spec parts. More companies are starting the whole mil-spec+ craze now. A Geissele trigger is not a mil-spec part but I hear cool guys are running them in their guns as they make the world safer for us. Just saying...

AIM has Spikes Mid Length rifles on sale for $759.95 shipped. That would give the OP some $$$ left over to add a thing or two to the rifle to suit him and/or pick up some more ammo. Or do what Spittle suggested and get a complete upper and build a stripped lower out as you like.
