Guns n Weapontry
Ok guys/gals....so I thought I would mix it up abit with a guns thread being that I have recently had an high interest in Assault Rifles particulary the M4 Carbine. I currently own and carry a Ruger P345 which I target shoot often so I would be using as recreational target power shooting of course. After seeing a few guys having a ( I guess shoot-off competition)Ive been hooked. They had some wicked looked Carbines. I also like the ACR and AR-15.......soooo I would just like to know what are some good weapons and your experiences of various weapons. Oh yeah I was eyeballing a .22 Assault Carbine but would like the .223 cal. I suspect the price in rounds would differ.... below is what I am looking to get.....begin discussion please.

Re: Guns n Weapontry
I'll start. First, please don't refer to them as "assault rifles". The military has assault rifles, the rest of us have to settle for semi auto rifles that have some of the same features that military assault rifles have. Now you and I know the difference, and I'm sure 75% of the readers of this post know the difference. It's that portion of the public with limited or no knowledge of firearms that is my concern. They read "assault rifle", immediately think of a high power killing machine, and then scream and stomp their feet calling for a ban of such weapons. Careful selection of terminology will go a long way in assauging the fear of these types of people.
Disclaimer: I don't own an AR-15 or any type of semi auto rifle, but I've done some research while comtemplating buying one so I'll share what I've learned.
A rifle from any of the main manufacturers such as Smith & Wesson, Colt, Bushmaster, Daniel Defense, Stag, Rock River, and others will be a quality product that will serve your needs. You can also buy individual components and build your own rifle. There are dozens and dozens of parts manufacturers to choose from.
Most AR-15/M4 rifles are operated by direct impingment, in that gas tapped off the barrel is routed directly onto the bolt to cycle the action. The ACR, and several others direct the gas onto a piston which in turns activates a rod to cycle the bolt. The direct impingment (DI) has been around for 45 years and is reliable provided the bolt is kept well lubed. The main drawback with DI is that the hot gas really dirties up the bolt, receiver and chamber. The piston system keeps most of the dirt on the piston itself, but a piston is another component that could fail. Interestingly the M16/M4 are the only military rifles using DI.
Most AR-15/M4 carbines are DI. There are some rifles, LWRC, Stag Model 8 and Ruger SR556, that are piston driven. There are also piston kits that can be retrofitted to an AR-15 DI rifle. It's highly recommended to avoid the piston kits since adapting the kit to a DI system leads to problems.
AR-15s can't be equipped with a folding stock. They are very mild shooting though and won't hammer your shoulder like a traditional bolt action rifle will. They can also be tricked out and assessorized to your heart's content. Basic rifles run from $600-900. More deluxe versions are $1200-1600 and the piston types run $1200-2200. Prices have been falling lately and now is a good time to buy.
If you like (and can afford) the ACR, then take a look at the FN SCAR. It's about the same, and about the same price (around $2400-2800). An alternative is the Robinson XCR. I'm seriously considering the XCR but alas, other expenses have priority. The XCR is a few hundred dollars cheaper to boot.
A neat alternative to the above is a bullpup. MSAR makes one for around $1400. Keltec also has one but it's chambered in .308/7.62mm.
While on the topic of caliber, other calibers such as 6.8 SPC and .308/7.62 can be had in many of the above mentioned guns.
Military M16/M4 are chambered in 5.56 mm. Civilian AR-15s are quite frequently chambered in .223 Remington. These two cartridges are not identical! The .223 can be shot in a rifle chambered for 5.56 with a slight loss of accuracy, but a 5.56 doesn't fit well in a rifle chambered for .223 and if shot, will develop unsafe pressure. .223 ammo is cheaper and more available than 5.56, but 5.56 rifles will shoot both rounds. Your call as to which chambering better fits your needs.
Expense doesn't end with the rifle. Ammo is around 40 cents a round (reloading will, of course, cut this dramatically). Then there is the matter of sights. A rifle can be equiped with open sights but most shooter eventually want to try an optical sight of some sort. The two big name in optical sights are Aimpoint and Eotech. Their sights run from $400 to $600 or thereabouts. Other companies offer cheaper sights but they are not as refined. Don't settle for a cheap Chinese knockoff sight for $30. These types of sights are only suitable for use on Airsoft guns and will not hold up to the recoil of a centerfire rifle. Plan on spending a minimum of $150 for a halfway decent sight. Adding new grips, rails, and a telescoping stock and that $900 AR-15 can be hitting on $2000 in short order.
Buying a 22 rimfire rifle to save money is a good idea. Smith & Wesson, HK, Sig Sauer, Colt (Umarex) and Ruger all market 22 versions. They run approximately $500-700 with the Sig possibly being the best of the bunch. Of course the Sig is also the most expensive of the bunch. FN and Robinson are rumored to be coming out with 22 versions of their rifles and these could be a good alternative.
Finally, AK-47/74 type rifles are another alternative but I really don't know anything about them. I have not reserarched them since I don't have any interest in the AK-47 series.
Please post pics of whatever you wind up getting.

Re: Guns n Weapontry
Basically.......if you're looking for a target rifle then go with the AR series.
If you're looking for a SHTF rifle then you definitely want an AK.
I own both types, some things I've found:
~The AR has better accuracy at 100 yards by about a inch.
~The AK has wayyyyy less moving parts, and can be field stripped and cleaned just about anywhere, anytime, in about 15 minutes.
~The AK used to be cheaper to get ammo for, now it's pretty much a wash either way.
~there's tons of parts and accessories for either to make them weigh just short of a metric ton.
~AR's occasionally jam unless you clean them every day....they usually clear out very quickly though.
~I can bury my AK in the mud, drive a tank over it, beat it with a hammer and drop it from an airplane........it'll still fire problem free without jamming.
~Tracer, starburst, and incendiary ammo is fun to shoot, and is readily available for either. ( Ammunition To Go : Your one stop for all of your ammunition needs! )
If I had to make a choice.......I'd go with the AK. Not to say I don't love my AR (Sabre Defense..GREAT weapon!) .......I just really like my AK's!

Re: Guns n Weapontry
Let me add a little to what the others have posted - which is great info, by the way.
The first thing you have to decide is what you want to do with the rifle. If you want a rifle for target and competition shooting (serious or just back yard fun), the AR series rifles are a good choice. You can customize them as far as you want to. There is every part imaginable for these rifles. However: be prepared to spend money! A plain-jane just off the shelf AR is not going to win you any target competitions. Sure they're a bit more accurate than the AK-47 series rifles, but you won't be driving tacks with them right out of the box.
Another down side to the AR series rifles is the jamming. As Brent and apkano mentioned, they jam more than most other rifles in the same price range. If you're looking for a ****-has-just-hit-the-fan kind of rifle, I would not recommend the AR rifles.
I have a Colt M7200 [Edit Corrections: it's an MT6700 not M7200], which is very similar to my service rifle (the M16-A2). That was a primary consideration when I bought it. I can tear it down and put it back together in the dark (yes, I have done that). And there's a lot to be said for that level of familiarity with a weapon.
There are a lot of other rifles to choose from out there. If I hadn't been so familiar with the AR, I wouldn't have bought one. I'm not saying don't get one - just saying you should know its weaknesses before buying and accept them or don't buy.
As for choice of caliber: go with the .223 not the .22LR. The recoil of the .223 is wimpy at its worst. If a 100 lb - 5 foot nuthin little girl can handle it, just about anyone can. A .22LR in a pistol is so minor as to be almost negligible, in a full size rifle it would be negligible. Now, if you jump up to a 7.62mm or .308 caliber, then you've got a little recoil to deal with.

Re: Guns n Weapontry
Honestly, I'd stay away from the .22 rimfire.
If your primary concern is just making some noise and punching some holes in paper at a short distance then the .22 will be more than adequate.....but it's only marginally more powerful than a pellet gun. Ammo is also relatively cheap. If either of those reasons are why you want to go with the .22 then it's your decision.
If you're wanting something with a little more pep to it then I'd go with the .223, it has good accuracy, distance, and pretty low recoil.
If you're worried about recoil, then definitely stay away from the AK rifles.
We could offer more help if we knew your price range. You can get seriously carried away real fast when you start to figure in ammunition and accessories.
