Buy recommendations Makasi, Carmel, Both, or Neither?

Both non-restricted 5.56 short-stroke gas piston semiauto accepting Stanag mags. Both taking orders with similar delivery dates. What is your choice and your reasons?

Edit: So to summarize what y'all are saying: - Makasi for AR aesthetics and compatibility, - Carmel for reliability, - Both if you hate money, - Neither because of potential bans.

Im a neither guy . I know I’ll get dogged for saying this but until things are a little more stable I don’t have an extra 5K to gamble on two more possible safe queens . If they don’t ban these, awesome I can pick up the one with better reviews in a year .
