If you like .308, try an AR-10. You can find a decent one for about 1k.

A buddy of mine has one but I'm just not sold on Stoner's design. As an AO in the Navy, I've had to break these weapons down to clean them. Too much work.

Sure, they're light and accurate as all hell but they foul quickly.

Honestly, I'm not really considering an AR-10. I've always thought the FAL looked like the coolest rifle. Think of those Rhodesian bush warriors wearing boonie caps. Just looked cool.

That's what I really wanted.

Then I discovered the PTR-91. Loose tolerances, from what I've read, basically the AK in the .308 world.
