The "normal" or original AR-15 comes in .223/5.56mm. Prices have been highly variable--they rocketed up after BHO was elected, and supply was very tight. You might have to wait 6 months to receive your gun after ordering.
Luckily, the supply has loosened up considerably, and prices have started falling. The cheapest you can likely get an AR-15 is here:

People have said that these have been good rifles. From the pic looks lilke you would need to buy a rear iron site. And scope mount if you want a scope.
The cool thing about the AR-15 is that it is highly customizable, and part are interchangeable. They come in two halfs (upper and lower), and you can buy them separately. Building a lower half from parts is not too difficult.
To buy a gun over the internet, you need to locate a FFL close to you who will charge a fee for transfer (usually $15-$30 or so).
If you have the resources, I personally would not delay buying one, because there is always the risk that the democrats will try to ban purchase, or otherwise restrict them. The democrats previously passed an "Assault Weapons Ban", but that sunsetted under GWB. The current AG Holder is on record as wanting to bring back the AWB, as is BHO. To them, these guns are the tools of evil criminals, not upstanding citizens.
They would have us only able to own bolt-action single-shot rifles, that can't be stored in our own homes.
