Show off your tactical rifles

December 24th, 2004, 05:24 PM

I am looking at buying a good tactical type rifle, AR15, AK, CETME or something similar. I keep gravitating back to an AR but interested in what you guys have used to satisfy the craving of a good tactical shooter. Any feedback or ideas would be appreciated.

Tactical to what range/distance?

Under 100yrds. an AK is hard to beat. But it\'s definitley no sniper rifle.

I\'ll post pics of my AR when I get the EoTech and Surefire installed. It\'s the Bushmaster Modular Carbine - 16\" flattop with picatinny hand guard, flip up sights, tubular stock.

I can take a picture of the parts, but my AR-15 is not assembled yet. Waiting for my next paycheck from the firehouse to buy the remainder of the parts.

For tactical, I have a Chinese Type 56 SKS. Longer range shooting is done with a Remington .280. Have others in between, but these are the primaries for the different situations that I keep ready.

It\'s this one from the Bushmaster website, but it\'s the 25th anniversary limited edition, which means it is 1 of 1500 and serial numbered, has nickeled parts like the takedown pins, trigger, forward assist, ejection port cover and mag catch. Pimpin\'.

not good enough. we need hi-resolution pictures of the rifle (you can model it if you want, but thats just for those around here who like that sort of thing - i.e. non-gun stuff :D )

we\'d specifically like to see it stock, and then once you get all your ninja goodies on it, we\'ll need to see it again. thank you very much.

p.s. does it ever weird you out to be around people who would rather look at a gun than a ninja-ette?
