| Tactical Rifles | |

| I am looking to add a flat top .223 tactical rifle to my | |
| collection. I really like the look of the DPMS Panther Oracle | |
| and Sportical. Just looking for opinions on here from any of you | |
| who have ever tried one. The 16" and 18" barreled versions will | |
| probably be my choice but longer models are available in 20"and | |
| 24". | |
| Just curious what you guys like. This purchase is more for home | |
| defense but it will have a Brunton 3.5X10X50 scope on it just in | |
| case I need to reach out and touch a varmint. I work nights and | |
| may be a while replying to your messages, but rest assured I | |
| appreciate all you guys input. Thanks. | |

| Sportical would be the ticket with the 16". Put a nice set of | |
| eyes on it and your good to go. if you have the extra $$$, the | |
| recon is a pretty good rifle also. I was looking at this rifle a | |
| while back, but with my current lay-off, it de-railed that | |
| project. | |

| Thanks, I checked out the recon also(nice). For the money, the | |
| Sportical/Oracle has caught my eye. Thanks for the input. | |

| That might be too late. I heard as early as next month for the | |
| ban. | |
| I like AR's but i can't hunt with one and not much into | |
| shooting a ton of ammo at pop bottles and pizza boxes. So can't | |
| decide whether to buy one just to have it or not. | |

| I have owned several AR's in my day. Use to rabbit hunt with an | |
| old .22 AR. You can sling some lead no doubt. As far as the | |
| new AR's...I think the design and appearance of these new | |
| tactical AR's is what the problem is today. | |

| The biggest problem is the media and anti-gun folks confusing a | |
| full auto military Assault Rifle with the semi auto Tactical | |
| Rifles being sold in the states. Big difference. We can't go out | |
| and buy a full auto weapon without a special permit that takes | |
| many years to get. It's funny a person with a criminal record | |
| can't legally purchase a weapon after a background check. But if | |
| you're certifiably insane(mental disorders) it's no problem | |
| because that information can never be released as public record. | |
| In my opinion often their actions suggest they are one and the | |
| same. JMHO. | |
