I am a High Risk Security Contractor and i am in the market for a rifle and some gear...both mine were stolen while i was in the hospital by my ex. Nothing special a 5.56. Do not want the newer 6.68, .308, would rather not have a 7.62 (ammo to much $). New job im starting we have to supply all our own equipment. All the bells and whistles are not needed, no optics needed, if that helps we are aggressive with things we go through parts OFTEN! Its part of the job. I also use my sidearm and shotgun more than the rifle so im not looking to go broke as i will make modifications as the job changes, and it does often from terrain to person to weather. Also have 870 12g. with scope mount on it for to to help with things...
