Best 5.56 Assault Rifle?

[sf]

All of the above.

G3.

My humble suggestion is to replace the term "Assault Rifle" with "Homeland Defence Rifle"

Hey, if the gun-grabbers can invent terms and drive it into the public psychy over 30 years to villify guns, why can't we do the same in our favour?

Sincerely,

FAVORITE 5.56 rifle? Yes .. I called them "Assault" Rifles...

Past, present, Prohib ... Whats your favorite? and Why?

I think the Galil is a contender....

piston, best of AK and M16 in 5.56

 

[Slowbalt]

Sig 550

 

[scotty]

G3.

Thats a .308, not a 5.56....

 

[gromagnolo]

AR70/90?????? Do you mean the Beretta?
Did you ever shoot it? I did , I was less than impress with it. The SF in Italy get rid of it!!
SIG ALL THE WAY!

What's an assault rifle ?

 

[Airborn_69]

ruger 10/22

My second choice!

 

[greentips]

I added the SG550 per request.

Thats a .308, not a 5.56....

Darn! Got to read topics and not what I want to read!

Alright SG550!

 

[zykopat]

M16 (AR15) all the way. Why?

-accurate from short to long range (well long range for an assault rifle)
-low recoil, straight line
-light weight
-rugged enough
-optics and accessories easy to mount

For more details just read Pat Sweeney's AR books.

Well I wonder if this little pol hasnt spurred people to post their great 12-5 guns on the EE??? FNC, Galil etc... im kicking myself for going on vacation next month


I think the FNC and Galil would make nice additions to the 12-5 locker... Alas, I will have to settle for the R4"gery and Ak84's (in 5.56)

 

[petster774]

AR'z any day. Played with all minus the Galil and Daewoo. AR'z=what they give me=what I know how to use best=best

 

[scotty]

Darn! Got to read topics and not what I want to read!

Alright SG550!

We all know the G3 is the greatest 308 battle rifle in the world...

I voted for the FAMAS just because I worked with one for 8 years (wishing I had a M4 ).
Bullpup is the way to go, 3 burst or full auto is a great idea, grenades up to 300m for every users (with accuracy), lefty/righty in 1mn...

Too bad it's french

 

[cz52]

SG(SIG), because it looks awesme, shoots very well and there is a lookalike of it that is non restricted in Canada.

 

[Airborn_69]

Noticed nobody took the SA80 as their best pick

 

[Strangeday]

I gotta say I have just loved shooting the G36 over them all...FNC is second place for me

 

[s.a.w gunner]

Love the SG550. Shoots great, reliable....still waiting for a failure to extract or feed with this one. It has went through its paces and has not let me down.
