My First Rifle?

in Guns and Other Weapons

Here’s what’s currently at the top of my wishlist: the Kel-Tec SU-16C. It has an integrated bipod and can actually be fired with the stock folded. Cool, huh? Of course, I’ll have to get a nice scope for it, some bigger mags, and maybe a muzzle flash suppressor.

This thing fires the same rounds as an M-16: 5.56mm. I used an M-16 in the Guard, but this is designed much better so that it won’t get so dirty from firing and misfire so easily. And, it can use standard M-16 ten, twenty, and thirty round mags. Sweet.

Retail price is $770 on the Kel-Tex website, $740 according to ImpactGuns.com but ImpactGuns is offering it for $526.99.

On second thought, I might get a muzzle brake instead of a flash suppressor. I’ll probably have more use for something that will dampen recoil and muzzle rise, especially during rapid fire, than something that will help protect my nightvision.
