I'm in the market for an AR pattern 7.62. The Larue is leading the list but I'm waiting on the Colt. The Remington doesn't interest me at all. But, I'm not a hunter anymore.
Anyway, 90% of my firearms are Glocks or AR carbines. With that being said how many posters here only own fighting guns? This is a silly argument. I have my Dad's old Double barrel, a pair of Walther P-22's, a few .22 rifles, none of which would be my preference to defend anyones life. Heck, even my trusty S&W 342, which is a self defense type of revolver would be way down the list should I know I had the need to defend myself or my family. Firearms are intrinsically interesting to me just like a fine camera, watch, or binoculars. To think ALL of them are primarily going to be used for defense of self, even on this board reeks of paranoia. To say that any of them couldn't be used for defense is just as silly. As a 20+ year cop I've seen many, many lives ended with firearms and can't think of a handful where a state of the art self defense blaster was used. Hunting firearms and el cheapo POS's are the preferred firearms for suicidal persons and dirtballs, respectively.
