Socom II poll

[jackdanson]

IMHO none of my rifles need a rail except maybe up top. Really just an opinion though, I like light and simple.

Also, I don't like the 16 in. barrel on a .308, just kind of irks me for some reason. The m1a is a rifle, not a carbine, and I don't think it makes a good carbine. (unlike the AR, which makes a great light and handy carbine)

Seems like a gimmick,I don't like it.
Full length with a rail on top and a pistol grip stock would be okay,but if I'm in close something better could be had for alot less money,like my crappy Norinco 98 12ga.

 

[HorseSoldier]

Not really playing to the M14's strengths, in my opinion.

 

[franconialocal]

I like it, and I'm getting one.
Very practicle for these thick NH woods, cruiser carry if I get cert. on it.
All I will add is a light, but I really like this rifle......

another vote for I like it.

i like the socom 2 /16 with a sage EBR stock, thats a hard combo to beat

 

[RobMoore]

Out of the 3 listed options for "I don't like it" I couldn't find one that properly expressed how I feel, so I voted for "I like it".

Its not for me, but its certainly not a tasteless price of crap. There are a few guns that I'd put in that category, but certainly not all the ones I don't personally feel the need to own.

I guess the only thing I don't like about a rifle with all that
rail real estate is that in less than an hour I could probably
easily surpass the base cost of the durn gun adding accessories.

I'd personally get the SOCOM 16, and drop it in the Troy chassis.

But even more so, and we spent many a night standing duty discussing this, the m16/m4 platform is quite a bit more intuitive for CQB. So for a .308 cqb gun, the POF P-308 in an m4 size would be just about right. That being said, I'd keep my m14/m1a in the scout squad setup, and put an acog on it (preferably with iron sights as well, just in case) And once I get a j-o-b here, my first rifle purchase will likely be an m1a.

The M1A Scout is just the ticket for me...let's leave those rails on the AR's and AK's

 

[husker]

what are they going for now? the last price i got was year 1/2 ago on a LOADED M1a NM carbon barrel-walnut stock $1800. i like the socom ll in the urban camo stock

 

[SoCalShooter]

Its pretty great rifle, friend of mine has one and ts a lot of un to shoot.
