Hi folks
My first post, been a fan of THR since I became a gun owner since people seem to be pretty experienced & insightful. Hoping you can help me out:
I'm looking for a rifle that's NJ legal which will be both good for home protection and also fun (and not bank breaking) to shoot. I'll already have a Ruger 10/22; which is questionable from a home protection angle; but definitely fun to shoot since I can only get a castrated version of the S&W M&P 15-22. I had my eye on the Model 8 from Stag Arms, but same thing; I'm not willing to pay that much for a castrated gun. :banghead:
This pretty much leaves me with two options by my research, so interested to hear your opinions on the two options with regards to the following:
a) accuracy past 100 yards
b) long term reliability
c) anything else
The two guns are:
1) Berretta Cx4 Storm (in 45ACP because I already have the ammo for my 1911)
2) Ruger Mini 14 (tactical or ranch rifle)
or if you know of another semi-auto that is NJ legal
Thanks for your thoughts!
