I need some opinions/examples from some of you guys to help me make a decision.
I recently sold off my old M1A and magazines/spare parts etc. in anticipation of purchasing a LMT MWS.
While I was at it, I got to thinking, why not just change over my hunting rifles to AR type as well. (Continuity of training) However, I can't seem to find anything that I want at the weight/quality/price point that I have put on myself. In frustration, I got to looking at why I even wanted a .308 for hunting when I could just use my AR's in .223 (with appropriate ammo) for hunting local West TN whitetail. The only reason that I would need a larger caliber would be if I were to go on my dream elk hunt out West. But I already have a Browning A-Bolt 30-06 w/a 2-7X33 scope that I have had for years and I really like.
Now I am beginning to question the need for the MWS.
I am just a Low Speed/High Drag civilian who wants to be prepared and who enjoys shooting. When it comes to home defense, I would use my 6920. If I need to evacuate the area, I would take my 6920.
Historically I have always wound up selling/trading my way into lighter weight weapons after starting out with heavier guns. I currently use Benelli shotguns, Browning Abolt rifles, Colt 6920 no rails, and Glock handguns, all of which are lighter that then guns that I had before.
So what slot in your firearms battery does your .308 AR fill?
What would you guys do?
