I want to buy a new rifle but I'm not sure what I should get.
I'm looking for something semi-auto,centerfire that is good for home protection and SHTF while also using a ammo type that will not break the bank for target shooting, Tacticool bullshit and ease of maintenance is a plus for me.
I am looking to spend no more than a grand.
What should I get /k/?

Get an AK
Entry level AR
S&W makes a solid entry one for pretty cheap.
5.56 isn't going to open up a can of lawsuits like .308 or the like if you're using it in a densely urban area.
Or you can just go WASR 10 for around same price.
AK or AR15
>>27556626
Buy or build an Ar15. Prices are down and now is the time to buy
>>27556626
I really wish there was a guide like this for guns.
>>27556626
I'm going to shamelessly bump my own thread so I can get some more opinions.

ARs are fun and reliable. Can Be had pretty cheap. The dpms Oracle .308 is about $800 on sale near me, so you got that too.

Any idea what caliber you're looking for? And used or new?
>>27557270
Either 5.56 or 7.62 but I would be open to any caliber that is cheap enough for me to go to the range once a week without hurting my wallet too much.

Also I would prefer new unless it's something incredible.
