Amit this is the shooters thread not the airsoft thread.
Unless you're just using that as reference, then yeah it's a great idea. I actually like a good free-float RIS with rail covers than the Magpul MOE handguard.
Yeah, I don't know any real websites for actual gear so I used Evike for quick reference for the style of rails and cover.

A really interesting video to me since I am always thinking about potential survival scenarios. The guy (who has some nutso political beliefs) picked three guns to take in an immediate threat scenario and I thought his choices were interesting.
So basically what guns would YOU guys take? List two long arms and a sidearm you would prefer and why.
1. Folding AK-Id take an AK because I dont think scopes of any sort are something I want/need in a grab and go weapons scenario. The 7.62 is just as available in the US as the 5.56. The weapon is super dependable, and can be pretty accurate if you are a good operator.
2. Pump Shotgun-Versatility, power, options. Pretty much why you would buy a shotgun at all.
3. 357 Revolver-More power than a 9mm, ammo a plenty, more multi purpose, and you don't have to take care of it (in my admittedly limited experience) like a semi auto. Dependability is a big plus to me.
Also I honestly think having one of these is crazy. Your being paranoid if you actually have a set-up like this. Or an international criminal.
G36K - durable as hell, extremely accurate, integrated optic and iron sights, lightweight. Mags aren't STANAG but I'd most likely get an adapter for that if I owned a G36.
Benelli M4 - Extremely dynamic and reliable semi-automatic shotgun.
USP .45 - legendary H&K reliability and accuracy like the G36K, 45 is fairly common of a round.
I'd say (in the US anyways) that the 45 is like third most common behind 9mm and 357/38 (I count it as one chambering, there is not point in owning one that doesn't shoot both).

be jealous for a little bit :p that's all
nothing inherently wrong with the m16a1. in fact i will say right here, right now, that the a1 is the best variant and will not be topped. burst fire is fucking stupid as shit unless it's an an-94 and aside from replacing the pencil barrel with a heavy nothing significant has been done to improve the rifle at all. the m16a1 was as reliable as the newest of a4s, it was the earlier xm16e1 and lack of cleaning kits and training which caused problems. pretty much all the bugs were ironed out when the a1 arrived.Quote:

if, for whatever reason, you expect to need some kind of ap capability (space nazis take over the us government???) then 7.62x25 tok is good and very cheap
ross' ideal shit hitting the fan setup:
ak-74m, preferably with a 1p29 mounted. can't go wrong with this rifle. reasonable accuracy, supreme reliability, it literally does not climb even in full auto and 5.45x39 is a pretty nasty round. the 74m variant has lighter and sturdier polymer furniture and a folding stock without the discomfort of the skeleton folder on the aks-74 model. the 1p29 is an excellent optic for both snap and aimed shots at all ranges and the mounting clears the irons in case the optics are damaged or it's too up close and personal for them to be any use.
second long arm would depend what's going on. ideally i'd have some kind of stash somewhere so i could switch between a decent shotgun and a 'reach out and touch things' rifle as necessary.
sidearm - browning hi-power or 1911. would depend what's going on, they're both excellent pistols.
ross' actual shit hitting the fan setup:
lee-enfield no.4 mk.1. my country blows.
that said, it is a good rifle, and it mounts a hella fuckoff bayonet...
