I've had that issue of my Kel-tec. I know, poor quality weapons, I just thought the sub2000 was cool, lol

Keltec isn't terrible but they are not top tier either I had the SU16E and I really liked it. I still kick myself in the ass for selling it

They have some really cool designs. But only like half of them actually work well.

Heard their bullpups are not to bad.

I've heard decent things on the EDB

RDB*

And Jedi, I don't know how to fly too well, lol..

Plus, it's a bit far for me

Yeah I haven't shot any of their bullpup but they felt nice in the hands at the gun store

I've both the RFB and RDB. The RFB is fickle but the RDB gives the Tavor a good run for the money.

Hmmm, well. That's good to hear. I'm actually really struggling to decide between a 14.5, 16 or 18 inch barrel for my next build...

I already have a 16, but it's not free float. And I don't have the other lengths

The Tavor is really nice for a Bullpup but the FS2000 was like butter I'd give my left nut to get one

I basically want it to be an loo-tastic rifle

My VZ58 is my freedom keeper that's part of the reason I had left it fairly stock as there is less shit to break or worry about

The Tavor SAR comes in a 16.5" and 18" barrel. The OAL length of the 18" model is 27". The OAL of the RDB is 27.3" with a 17" barrel . You can't SBR with that length of barrel........

True, but I like the AR platform, I'm not a huge fan of bullpups

I have years of experience with an AR, and the manual of arms is second nature to me.

I own an AR only because the asshole sperm donor I am 1/2 of wanted me to have one before he died, so I got a freebie.

Huh, well. That's one way to get a rifle.

A Ruger SR556.

Ahhh, got ya. I haven't touched a Ruger AR... it just seems like an odd company to make ARs

They are a Fudd gun company, which their stuff is good. I guess I just don't trust em to make ARs

The SR series was mid-tier. I like it but ARs have never been my favorite, even if I did get paid to shoot M-16A2s in a younger life.

Haha, I actually ran some old FN M16A2 just a couple months ago at a reflexive fire range.

The bastard still kicks.

I remember first day on the range and my first three shots overlapped high to the left. My DI looked at me and said more of that but in the middle.

Haha, good. I've liked AR platforms forever. Hell, I had a Green Beret CPT compliment my shooting at the reflexive fire. I told him he should see me when I have my personal rifle, hahaha.

Most ruger centerfire is meme tier trash, though I've heard good things about the ruger precision rifle. If you're looking for an all around igloo gun, I'd say a free floated mlok 16" ar with adjustable gas block. If you plan on running a suppressor or just live in a suburban area, maybe an 11.5-12.5 pistol

Already have a 11.5 and I like it. But based out of KY, I need something I can use in both.

I might go for middle ground at do 16"...

What's your area like? I understand Kentucky has some wide spaces and mountains. If you're out away from the city I might even say an 18" wwsd rifle

So I have a variety of small to medium towns around, with wooded areas and some fields in between. And a city less than an hour away

So was thinking a 14.5 carbine, or a 18 SPR

Also, I wanna hear on what people think is more effective. Slick plate carrier and chest rig for more options? Or decked out plate carrier to keep everything together?

Everything together in my opinion

Mission drives gear god damnit

Well Crye, obviously. I'm just curious as to what people think fits their situation.

Hence why I have two gear sets. For two seperate missions.

In a SHTF situation, you’re gonna take twice as long gearing up.

Now, certain situations, I could see concealable armor under a jacket or shirt, but as far as a grab and go scenario, definitely together
