Since all of the cool semi-autos are off the market in MD, I’ve decided to save my pennies and do another Class III at some point in the near future (every time I see a cool gun that I can no longer legally buy or bring into the formerly free-state of Maryland, I put five bucks in a jar. Thanks to Shotgun News, this is becoming a pretty good savings account fairly quickly).
Am still lining up options for what my purchase will be, but one of the ones I’m thinking about is an M-2 carbine. I’ve got a couple of M-1 carbines, so I’m not unfamiliar with the platform, but was wondering if anyone had advice (pro or con) about manufacturers or other considerations pre-purchase.
Am willing to be talked into something else too, so any comments welcome. My other strong contender is a Ruger AC556. Am looking for something that I can get for 6- 8K that will use magazines that I either have or can get easily in PA/VA. Thanks in advance for the advice and insight.
