Soooooo I have some money burning a hole in my pocket. Here's the situation...
I was originally planning on buying a new Springfield Armory Railed PRO and have always wanted one but already have a couple 1911s
and a PRO would be pretty similar so I started thinking. I don't have a bolt gun.
I was doing some reading and thought it'd be pretty cool to have one built using -
1. AICS AX pale brown chassis (any advice here is appreciated)
2. Defiance deviant tactical action (.308)
3. Bartlein barrel (open to suggestions) 16"
4. Trigger, unknown yet honestly I haven't gotten this far yet
5. Rugged Suppressors 762 Surge (already have it and a 762 Saker, Surefire SOCOM 762 MINI etc, but Im pretty positive I'll be running the Surge)
So I guess I'm making this thread to
1. Learn more
2. Hear suggestions, etc
What's everyone's opinions and advice? I'm pretty much looking for a small'ish, foldable, portable, cool rifle. I was originally thinking about going 6.5cm but I'll never be shooting at the longer ranges that this cartridge shines. I'll have more options with 308, both suppressed and unsuppressed and I'm not a reloader. I had looked at the Surgeon actions but had read the new ones aren't as good as the old Surgeon actions and honestly the Defiance looks pretty badass so I don't feel as though I'm settling.
I don't have anywhere near to me to go and try out or handle the actions in person so that limits me. So let's hear what you guys have to say!
