So I’m pretty happy with this:
I trained on M16s in the army, and I’ve taken week-long courses where I fired an AR or a Scar, and I’ll readily admit that the ergonomics of the AR are almost perfect.
But…
I’ve never liked the .223, and AR10s are just…not what I’d hoped they’d be. My favorite rifles have always been M1A and Garands, so I finally built this monstrosity:
I love it in spite of its flaws.
anyone else have weird preferences in rifles? Or dedicated slug guns that are your go-to just because of irrational preferences?

- SOCOM-16 platform (you’re giving up too much velocity! You can’t easily suppress it!)
- Archangel CQB stock
- Ultimak M8 rail
- EOTech mounted up front on a riser to see over the
- DBAL illuminator
- Surefire light, and a Surefire switch that drives both the illuminator and the light
I love it in spite of its flaws.
