Kinda...
I like it’s strengths and dislike it’s weaknesses.
Strengths-
muzzle device can direct flash/blast to help keep you close to target.
Fixed sights are harder to mess up and easier to return to zero.
“Handle” can be used as a handle if you are trekking through rough country in an emergency situation.
Weaknesses-
It’s kinda big for the things I would consider using it for
It’s too weak of a cartridge for the things I would want to use it for
It’s too big to be an emergency gun.
So what did I do? 8” AR pistol with A2 upper reciever, A2 style front sight tower, birdcage muzzle device. Now it’s small, light, reliable, easy to pack, and the sights are pretty reliable even if dropped hard. It’s strong enough, and accurate enough for small and medium game to eat. Only thing it won’t do is fix busted truck to get me out of the jam.
