Dear Folks. Thank you for helping me out deciding with XCR or 3 AKs...
Now I need your help once again. I am looking at 308 rifle. What I need is: Chrome lined bore, reliability and accuracy. Ergonomics and aesthetics are not an issue. I already have Saiga 308 but would like something more: upper class.
1. VEPR 308. Yet another AK. I am very much familiar with them and feel comfortable with them. Not sure how much accuracy difference will be between VEPR 308 and SAIGA 308 v 21 that I already have. There are NO spare parts for them.
2. FNAR. Costs as much as Vepr 308. Mags cost a bit more then 20 rounders for Vepr 308. Not sure how tough reliable it is, is it FAL/G3 reliable? Has no iron sights through:-(. How much advantage or disadvantage would it give compared to VEPR 308 besides availability of spare parts?
3. Kel tec RFB. Bullpup (love bullpups, have M17S and STG556. However, it has rather weird extraction system. Not sure how reliable it is. Has no iron sights though:-( . Had Very GOOD experience with Kel Tec SU16A. However there is a difference between customer service of COMPANY and reliability of a RIFLE.
4. M14s. Springfield M1A has no chrome lined barrel. Fulton armory is overpriced. Chinese Polytechs are a crap shoot.
5. FAL. Enterprise Arms and DSA fals have no chrome lined barrels.
6. G3: PTR91 and C91 has no chrome lined barrels.
Few things:
The Ammo I shoot is either cheap surplus, or Russian steel cased. In all cases I use FMJ or Steel Core only.
