Battle rifles (223 need not apply)

[Badgersmilk]

"The term battle rifle is usually given to post-World War II selective-fire infantry service rifles such as the H&K G3, the FN FAL, the ArmaLite AR-10, or the American M14."  :Wikopedia

That REALLY limits the choices huh?  Given the right stock's, triggers, and sights...  I dont think you'd see alot of differance between their performance.

Hazcat.  Almost pee'd myself when I saw that picture!  BEST RIFLE EVER!   I think I've seen a few of those at the local ranges too!  If people see that thing in a movie its all over!  It'll be the only rifle any self respecting man could ever own!!!

My goodness how little it takes for some people to loose control of their pride here!!!  I have to throw two words out here just to see what happens...  Mosin Nagant

Oh yeah!  The barrels kinda long, but wouldnt a SVD / Draganov fit in here?  Yeah, yeah, yeah, everybody calls it a sniper rifle, BUT!  Now we're talking about all kinds of variants and mods. with all the others guns listed too.  Put on a 20" barrel, 20 round clip, and BAM!!!



Still...  "Mosin Nagant"  Somebody jump all over that!

after picking one up last night, I am now a major fan of the M1A. What an awesome piece of hardware!

[Badgersmilk]

He's waiting for you!!!  Probably not going to see that 300 yard shot you were praying for though!

On the topic of variants:  Pick your favorite flavor!  If you've got the cash these guys (DSA) make'em as nice as they come!  I'd go for fourth from the bottom.

For color I'd say just green furnature and black steel, I like the features on the fourth from the bottom though.  Nice build.  Should be a pretty reliable, practical shooter...  Out of my price range.

That'll put a lot of AK's on the table!

While I dropped over a grand on my AR, I got a MAK 90 years ago for $169, 30 rnd mag's for $4.50 ea..  With two grand on the table I might still buy the AK, a BUNCH of ammo, and more training...  Rifles are only as good as they guy carrying it.  Mighty, mighty few are as good as they think they are.
