I'm debating between the restricted and non-restricted versions of the FPC and am looking for some input in case there are some pros and cons I've overlooked. They're both basically the same price.
Restricted pros:
- shorter 16.25" (vs 18.6") barrel that looks a little better and doesn't stick out past butt stock when folded
- comes with 1x17rd and 2x23rd mags pinned to 10rds instead of the blocked Canadian 10rd mags with tall floorplate that you have to fight with to get the 10th round in and slam in the gun when fully loaded to 10 due to the spring pressure
Non-restricted pro:
- no ATT restrictions
Which would you guys get? Am I missing anything? I'm leaning toward the restricted, but I will admit that non-restricted does have that intangible "feel good" quality due to no ATT restrictions, even though for my use case there is no practical difference.
It seems that anytime a rifle comes out, the first thing question everybody asks is "non-restricted?". The restricted versions might as well be radioactive as no one wants the touch them with a ten foot pole. I get it though. I envy people who live in a rural area that allows them to get more use out of their non-restricteds.
Thanks
