MistWolf,
What is that gear box in the back of your vehicle?

Great taste. I, too, like CAR stocks and fixed irons.
I can't carry every day, due to my employer(s), but my go-to pistol is now a Beretta PX4 fullsize in 9mm, with "G" and "D" conversions. Its new, but I now have enough rounds through it to trust it (1000). Holster is a High Noon Stingray in horsehide.
Goto gear is an AWS plate carrier that mimics the setup I had last time I carried a rifle for a living, except the Eagle and Paraclete flap pouches have been replaced with 4 Tacos. Camelback, tourniquet, flex cuffs, remote antenna, plates, soft armor, SAM splint, Halo seal, etc. all same. IFAK on belt, 8 o'clock. High cut helmet with rattle can camo. The odds of me actually using this stuff again is super slim, but seeing it in the corner of a room is comforting for some reason. It still gets used in training pretty frequently.
Primary goto rifle is assembled around a 14.5 in Noveske barrel with a 12" DD RIS and ALG ACT trigger. Laundry bag/rattle can camo. It's wearing a Leopold 2-7 scope and offset irons that I put on for hunting and competition in 2015, and subsequently misplaced the fixed iron sights that were on it before. I've been debating new irons vs Nightforce 1-4. No rush. Blue Force sling with metal Cobra. It also has a Inforce WML. Not as beefy as a Surefire or Elzetta, but I really like the tailcap.
This rifle just got a few parts replaced and must be re-vetted, so right now my bedside gun is my Saiga 74. The mag and grip have been converted, but I left the long handguard on it and stipled it. USGI M16 sling with ghetto-fabbed mounting points. Comblock length wooden stock, rattle can paint job. Its a beater gun. Looks like a real POS, but it shoots, and reliably.
Thanks, the gun now has an Aimpoint on it that has been rattle-canned to match the gun. Otherwise it's still set up the same. However I'm expecting to receive BCM carbine-length PKMR handguard and a BCM foregrip on Monday, so those will be going on the gun once they've been appropriately rattle-canned as well.

I like them a lot, they are about everything I could want in a polymer handguard. I like that they are slimmer than even Magpul's "SL" handguards, and also unlike the SLs allow you to retain the factory front sling swivel right from the get go (Which I still use). I suppose if I could change anything about them I'd make them M-Lok instead but I really don't hang enough stuff off the front of my ARs to really care too much about the specific type of accessory attachment system I'm using.
I've also got a midlength set of PKMRs. This gun also now sports a BCM vertical foregrip, however because I shoot this gun from a rest a lot the foregrip *may* end up getting removed, but I wanted to at least try the VFG on it.

They are simple, and serve me well. I kind of feel a little guilty leaving my 2k+$ setups in the safe.
My go-to rifle is a BCM 11.5" factory upper on Stag SBR lower. Sighting package is a TA31RCO-M4 with offset Vortex red dot. White light is a Surefire Fury Tactical with the clicky tailcap (no strobe). I usually have a Viking Tactics 2pt sling attached if I'm going to be carrying my rifle around.
This setup runs like a sewing machine and going from 4x to 1x and back takes milliseconds with a simple tilt of the rifle. I can also access the red dot off my left shoulder with no issues.
Weight with a fully loaded 30rd PMAG is 8lb 13oz, which is not a huge deal at all.
