Hi all,
I've been in a frenzy lately to get an assault rifle-type weapon in something larger than .308 and legal in CT (which rules out AK's in 7.62). I held a saiga the other day and it was OK from what i saw but then again I'm a newb. Anyways, the AR-10 platform made loads of sense to me because i could hunt with it and its accurate, badass, etc. But then i started finding the price was a bit of a problem...$1600 is over my budget.
So anyways, I figured that a G3 or FAL would be a good balance (online they go for about $700-$800 for a g3. does that sound right?) What should i be looking for?
Is a g3 better than an FAL or vise versa?
Any advice or experiences with these guns is greatly appreciated!!
